  • Exactly what I needed

    Wow. What a shame I’m joining at the beginning of this journey! I was ready to devour these conversations and now I have to wait.

    The format of the show is very insightful and inspiring. I really appreciate the focused and honest approach. I’ve been writing alone for 6 years, and it within minutes it felt like I was sitting at the table among friends learning so much.

    Thanks for putting this together, can’t wait for more!

  • The expert in the corner

    I loved this. You could just tell the authors on this episode were talking both from experience and the heart. The advice was both sound and empathetic and sent me away feeling much better about what I’m trying to achieve. No more Mean Girl on my shoulder. Far better two sages at my back. More please!
