  • A Kind Companion

    Transitions and changes in life is something people aren’t often open about. It’s easy to feel super isolated as you navigate changes. The Pivot has been such a kind encouragement. The guests are honest and open in their journey. Andrew does a wonderful job of hosting. It feels like you’re among friends - which is soothing when you feel uneasy in the midst of changes.
