“Which is silly. It’s silly to be hesitant about a podcast - you either listen and stay tuned or you don’t and move on elsewhere. But I was hesitant. I think because, at first glance, the content covered in these episodes struck me as addressing all the areas in life that for the most part, I had very little interest in having repeated back to me. So initially I listened, but it was listening with a healthy side of suspicion. And I’m glad I did. Listen that is, cause this podcast is actually the opposite of what I feared it may be. Instead, each episode could be described as a reassuring and insightful pep talk moderated by hosts (Sam!) you’d trust to seek advice from. I just finished the episode on grief in the time of covid (I lost a family member a week ago) and a wave of emotion came over me, it brought up a lot of feelings I couldn’t quite put a finger on until now. Sam is brilliant, if there was a word that encompassed being both intellectual and having no trace of pretension, just being purely curious and authentic- that word would describe sam. And Sure, there are episodes where the topic being covered is perhaps more complex or nuanced than a podcast -any podcast -could fully thresh out, but that’s why this show is so great - there’s no insistence that any approach suggested is the only or only correct one. And really, that’s often all it takes to get motivated and have the confidence that you can take on challenges you face. Subscribe. It’s worth it.”
