  • Annie is a pro

    I have 458 podcasts left before I have them all listened to. Annie, you have introduced me to so much. I learned about the Enneagram from you. So many authors and teachers. I learned about Jon Acuff and soundtracks. What a life-changing book. I read a few of your books. 90 days to brave inspired me to begin to write my own book. I will forever be grateful for you. Thank you for doing what you do in this world.
