So refreshing and inspiring to listen to dialogue not diatribe. I was completely transported by the Samantha Harvey interview to another visionary realm….Magic of audio - helmed by soul and sense - a rare blend
This podcast is so talented in its ability to keep a conversation on track whilst letting their (and their guest’s) brilliant minds flow in marvellous ways - all to produce a digestible chat which leaves you feeling fulfilled!
Just on episode one and cannot wait to go through the whole season - engaging and absolutely on point with the subjects. Well done!
Send me away to a desert island and I’ll binge-listen. Loving it.
I’d love to have more of these honest conversations, brought me to reflect on different things I was not aware of and also smiling about others. I truly enjoyed. Thanks a lot!
