  • Must listen!!!

    I’ve been following Shana’s work for a couple years now and this is definitely her at her best! Insightful, and most importantly, applicable to daily life. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability that she and her guests bring, and have used what I learned to make my life better. Looking forward to more episodes and how they can help me continue to grow on my journey.
