  • A voice to calm AND inspire

    I love this podcast for the stories, the poetry, and learning abo... more

  • what a kind service to humanity

    I’ve long been a fan of Sheen‘s work. This is such a rich and powerful format and a kind act of generosity from someone who assuredly has other things he could be working on. Thank you to Martin Sheen and the kind folks who are helping him produce the podcast and put it out into the world. It is seen, appreciated, and has an impact!
