  • Captivating podcast

    I knew I would really enjoy this new podcast as it was from a very talented and genuine producer. I wasn’t wrong, think I like this podcast even more than REAL the original series. Thanks for giving people a voice to tell their stories. Will definitely be looking into the Patrion.

  • Really enjoying this

    I’ve follow Naomi’s other crime podcast for years and this is a great spin-off. Love the guests, the gentle tone, the respect for the guest, she gives them space to talk without making it about her and effort that goes into this is obvious. Particularly loved Kayley’s episode. Thank you

  • Host doesn’t sound genuine

    I really like this podcast, but I feel that if the guests are opening their lives up to be scrutinised, then the host should be honest about themselves. I might be wrong, but this sounds like a lady that used to have another podcast about manifesting.
