I stopped listening after the host started stating her pronouns like we didn’t already know she was a her. She also has her guests do the same. It’s just so cringe that I can’t listen to anything else she says and take her seriously.

Thank you for putting yourself out there like this! I just listened to the reunion with Julie Kraft and it almost had mor or had me in tears throughout.

The first podcast I listened to was the one with Shaley featuring Brandon Russ. I found myself putting on headphones and nodding “yes” frequently throughout the podcast because I could relate to it. As someone who does not openly disclose my diagnosis, I felt at home here. I felt human. I felt...Read full review »

I’ve always enjoyed listening to podcast and audiobooks for some reason I have trouble with things being quiet, having something playing in the background sometimes helps quiet the noise in my head. The noise that tells you you’re not good enough, smart enough, pretty enough, ect. I’m 52 years...Read full review »

There are really fabulous podcasts about mental health and specifically bipolar— but this has put into words what has been so hard to articulate.
