  • Piano music is awful!

    The content is good! However, the piano music is jarring and very unpleasant to hear. It happens randomly too and makes me jump since it’s so much louder than the rest of the content. Please eliminate the piano music.

  • Self validation and education

    I am so grateful to hear in detail the characteristics described on both ends of the spectrum, the abuser and the victim. It gives me great insight into what my wife describes to me plus my own experiences. These last few episodes have literally made my stomach bubble up from resonating so much. Thank you!

  • This is so helpful! Love it.

    The March 26th episode was spot on and exactly what I was going through. I absolutely loved that she asked the question “who’s getting stuck in these relationships”. That was so helpful to me. I hope that helps me in my future relationships.
