As a divorced mom of one young girl, I could relate to this story to some extent. But honestly, Michelle’s self-pity and non-stop despair (with periods of surprise elation caused by men) were kind of pathetic. Or maybe just different from my experience, so made me feel strong and resilient. I...Read full review »

After being a devoted listener of CBC Spark for over 8 years, Michelle Paresi's voice has become incredibly familiar to me. Due to my unfortunate choice of a subpar podcatcher (Stitcher) for all those years, I regrettably missed out on experiencing Paresi's remarkable memoir. However,...Read full review »

As a 47 year old woman who separated from my husband 3 years ago, and who just broke up with a man I loved deeply, and the mother of a 5 year old daughter, there was a lot in this story that I could relate to. Michelle describes her journey with such candor, vulnerability and humor that I...Read full review »

I listened to it twice and I’ll do it for the third one . I love hear voice and how she tells the story😍

This was in no way romantic. This story is about a self absorbed woman who craves male attention above all else. Listening to this puts feminism back a 100 years and reiterates that only the presence and validation of a random guy can make a woman feel whole. Never mind family, her child or a...Read full review »

I had to stop listening. I actually forced myself to listen to episode 15 and couldn’t take any more. She admits to sleeping with her husband 3 times a week after he had an affair on her. The episodes I listened to are all about her sleeping around and continuing to sleep with her ex. I kept...Read full review »

This podcast drew me in. I was nostalgic for Canada and the “soundness” of Canadians, but after several episodes I think I overdosed. At first the transparency seemed vulnerable, the repetition in thinking and behavior seemed honest. This is what happened when there’s devastation. But then, there...Read full review »

Loved this podcast

Just discovered this amazing podcast and binged it in 24hrs! Such a wonderful, seemingly cathartic, memoir that is so relatable. I saw myself many times in both the good and the bad. The demanding and the settling. The asking why. Please share more!

This podcast is the only reason I sleep at night, her stories..her voice, I put myself in her shoes! It feels so realistic the way the story is told, this was the first podcast I EVER listened to and is now the only one I play over and over to find peace enough to sleep,

This podcast taught me how to grieve from intense heartache. I came across it during a painful breakup and it was the medicine I needed for getting through. Michelle is so open and painfully honest about the dark and difficult times we all experience, but are too ashamed to talk about. She made...Read full review »

Lengthy pauses and musical breaks in between the story. Awkward. Didn’t keep listening

I listen to a lot of podcasts, this is the only one that has ever made he cry. Such a relatable and human experience told in an incredibly beautiful way.

I just listened to the series for the third time and still can’t get enough. I love Michelle’s passion and raw emotion in telling her story. I hope she has found true happiness.
MiggyMaye via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/27/21
I was totally gripped by the story of Michelle’s quest to find herself again after the heartbreak of betrayal, navigating the choppy waters of love, friendship and parenting in today’s world. Totally rooting for you!

I adore this podcast. So far from what I usually binge, but I was captivated from the beginning. I love Michelle’s voice, her raw honesty and her storytelling ability. The music in the podcast is to die for!
Kayspills via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/30/21
This is a very toxic podcast for women . She is so cliche, low self steam, plays the victim and seems that she enjoys looking herself as a victim all the time. She pretends to be progressive independent woman but on the other hand she is so conservative and narrow minded in so many topic like not...Read full review »

Stretching with music. Filling up space. Just tell your story if you have one to tell

I am amazed at her honesty. Putting it all out there for everyone to hear. She is a very talented writer and her voice is like honey drizzled on a warm biscuit- I could listen to her all day. That being said, I want to shake her into seeing the big picture! The cake! The cake! I love her and...Read full review »

Suscribed be automatically it sounded so interesting. Then I noticed first season not available, so I didn’t want to start on the second season. Then after checking for months, I noticed the first season was up! Yay! Well, then no. All episodes malfunction. Every single time.
AuraMar1272 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/21
SOO HAPPY the first season is back up! In the last couple of years I’ve re listened to this countless times. It’s so beautifully written and put together and I can relate to it on so many levels that it always makes me feel full! I remember her saying something about a book coming out too but I...Read full review »

I don’t normally care for such personal, confessional, material. I would never read a book like this, but this is compellingly honest and real... Michelle is a natural story teller.
Bob Moodie via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/12/21
I’m so glad I stumbled on this podcast! It’s very binge worthy and makes my workday pass faster. Even if a few tears are shed in the process, as it’s all quite relatable to my own experiences. It’s probably the most authentic and heartfelt podcast I’ve binged over my many months of Covid...Read full review »

Very well narrated story so well told she will take you through her heart felt experience well worth taking the journey .
Persianncat via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/02/21
This podcast is the first one I’ve felt the need to review because it felt like a voyeuristic glimpse into a deeply raw and poignant universal story about love, loss, and pain. But the first season has been taken down and I can’t find it anywhere else?!

I did enjoy this story podcast but really I know I did not pay but the amount of interruptions was absolutely ridiculous.

I can relate to this story I pretty much went through the same thing and she’s right after over 5 years of my divorce I finally accepted that being alone is ok ... it was a roller coaster of 5 years for me
