  • Everything I Needed

    Going through a separation / divorce myself recently I found myself searching high and low for other women’s stories and support in the form of similar situations so that I could feel “normal”. This podcast is incredible. Love these two ladies and every episode is brilliant! Thank you so much for the comfort, tears and knowing that its ok if things don’t work out as we planned.
