  • Loving this podcast!

    Ellen takes what could be a very complex subject matter, our brain and how it works, and makes it so easy for anyone to understand. I find myself taking notes or rewinding to hear key points she makes that I want to remember and put in practice. Truly a great podcast and the music she has incorporated is so lovely.
