- Incredibly beautiful
Thank you Phyllis and Kathy! I’ve been following your podcast for a while now, and I am so blessed by your conversations. I love the low-key setting and I feel like I’m on one of your walks as you talk about life and the soul practice it invites. I love to hear your dog’s jingling collar at times!
I’m an over thinker, and your latest episode really invited me out of my self-judgments and into self-compassion. What a gift!
Thank you for your wonderful work!
