Love these ladies - don’t mind the SuperTracker mentions- just grateful for so many laughs !
In a world that’s so serious it’s nice to have a place to laugh for silly things. Love the charge to find the humor in life.
I loved it so much that I became a super tracker! I need more light-hearted, fun podcasts because news is depressing! I have 3 teenage boys so Heather’s insight and vulnerability is so nice!
Absolutely love listening to Cynthia and Heather every week. (I’m a Supertracker, too.) I save the podcast to listen to during my least favorite activities to make them more bearable! Love the mix of the serious, helpful and hilarious from two Christian women in a similar stage of life. Also enjoy the product recommendations and appreciate that the podcast doesn’t feel like one long commercial like a similar, very popular one I listen to. Thanks for a fun but meaningful listen!
Funny and not taking themselves too seriously. More of this please
