- So interesting and real!
I met Dr. Angel at a social event recently and decided to listen to her podcast because she seemed so down to earth, and real. And so smart! And it didn’t disappoint. The first episode has me rooting for her brother and at the edge of the seat. Why did he actually do it? How did they sort out all the terms? Why did Rachel choose him?
So interesting and real. Loving it thus far.
