  • Victoria/RealPod is the reason I listen to podcasts!!

    I have been listening to RealPod since 2019 and cannot express enough how much I appreciate Victoria and this podcast! As a fellow 2019 college grad and athlete who is now a clinical psychologist, I am SO appreciate of Vic’s openness to sharing her experiences and promoting body image and mental health advocacy. I have loved watching her content evolve over time (shoutout wedding content, we also got married the same year!) and listening to incredible speakers like Jeffrey Saad and Emmanuel Acho... more

    Need to steer away from toxic podcasts and decided to check out Victoria after following her on TikTok for a long time. She is so real and down to earth. I couldn’t have chosen a better episode to start with. Who doesn’t love Elyse Myers? So funny and relatable. I’m glad I found this podcast and it will immediately be in my weekly rotation.

  • not for me anymore

    stopped listening when she started talking negatively about GLP-1 medications. These medications help thousands of people every year reach their goals. They aren’t an “easy way out” but a tool to help people lose weight. The way she talks about them really rubs me the wrong way.

  • My favorite podcast

    I’ve been listening to realpod for about a year now and just love the content. I loved the episode recently with Vic and Max. Them opening up about heartbreak and coping within a relationship really hit home for me since I’ve gone through something similar. I think listening to this podcast has made me a better person and partner. Vic, thank you for everything you do and thank you for teaching us it’s okay to be vulnerable.

  • Best podcast out there

    I can not say enough good things about the Real Pod podcast. I literally paused mid episode to write this review because the episode on stress and burnout is SO eye opening and important to talk about. Vic invites the most amazing and knowledgeable guests to talk about hard topics and she does not shy away from difficult conversations. Vic brings a positive energy to every show and I’m always so impressed with the questions she asks and how well spoken she is in general. Listening to Real Pod gi... more
