Have you ever had a Sliding Doors Moment - a decision or opportunity that could have gone either way that leads to two very different futures?

I’m Jennie Becker and I’m fascinated by ‘what if’ moments - what they look like, what we can learn from them - and how we can begin to embrace them.

Five years ago I had my very own Sliding Doors Moment when I decided to start this podcast. Since then I’ve ... more

  • Joe Pasquale

    So this is one of the great things about Sliding Doors podcast. You learn things about the guests, who are usually well known people, that you never would otherwise.

    Joe’s 3rd Sliding Doors moment about a trip to Venice is a great example.

    The episodes very often seem like therapy to the guests because Jennie is chatting to them (rather than questioning) about big “life” moments.

    A very refreshing and different podcast. Well done from me!

  • Great concept let down by the presenter

    I have really trued with this podcast due to great concept and interesting guests. I have given up as the presenter seems to just keeping saying “ yeah, yeah,” a lack of quality discussion and questions. Sadly I feel the presenter doesn’t know what to say to the guests.
