Being on Dimming the Gaslight was a great experience. Mac and Phil made it feel like a genuine conversation between people who truly understood each other. It was easy to connect with them, and we had such meaningful dialogue about things most people don’t talk about enough. They create a safe, supportive space that makes it comfortable to open up, and I left the episode feeling heard and validated. I’m grateful for their work and the space they’ve created for survivors.
