For example, I was reminded about the importance of stillness—being present with myself and my emotions, noticing my own mind-body and emotion-body connections and connectedness—each with their...”Read full review »

“A fundamental human need is to feel seen, heard and understood. To be loved and appreciated for who we are. Paradoxically, the strategies we have developed to deal with pain trigger within our bodies an automatic reaction to close. We hide our sorrows, we deny our grief and no matter how much we...”Read full review »

“When I listen to your podcast, it seems to me that part of your storytelling gift is to approach a person and their story a bit like Michelangelo approached the rock from which he carved The David. Your curiosity leads you to ask questions whose answers reveal the contours of the story being told...”Read full review »

“Yelka elevates the power in storytelling and reflecting on critical junctures in one’s life. In a world where individuals can feel increasingly disconnected from one another, this podcast provides the intimacy and vulnerability of human connection, we’ve all been missing. Can’t wait for the next...”Read full review »

“I love that this is storytelling without a prescriptive point of view. Storytelling without trying to a point to a specific lesson for listeners to learn, rather it seems the point is to share and be vulnerable which is perhaps more important and impactful.”

“I love this idea—exploring the “turning points” in our lives, the moments that changed or shaped us—and I love the way Yelka (the host) approaches this topic. So far, she’s given such a great spotlight to BIPOC men and women, and it really inspires and uplifts me to know that the hardships that...”Read full review »

“Each episode is unique, touching and relatable in a lot of ways. If you are a Black man, I think you should listen to the conversation Yelka had with James. Very eye-opening, educative, and relatable. As James was sharing his stories, I saw myself in his experiences. As Black men, we are taught...”Read full review »

“Wow, cool little podcast. It was a great conversation to hear. I had to actually pullover to a park bench so that I could fully enjoy the chat; almost wanted the chime in.

Yelka supports her guests on their way there, and when the turning point appears she helps them name the values and...”Read full review »
