  • Deeply in love with this podcat

    I love how articulate and concise Kayla is. I am so loyal to this podcast because it is inspirational and it makes me feel happy when I feel a bit low. It has a cosiness to it I can’t describe, maybe because the host and guests are authentic and real. It feels like having a long conversation with a close friend.

  • Kayla’s world…

    is a very real place, as real as it gets, and one that she builds with all her humanity, sincerity, and heart, always shining her lights, even (and especially) when it gets really dark. What a privilege to be taken along for the ride, to learn, and to grow with her, and her loved ones (super enjoyable when Alix is on), from her home, and from where she is right now: a really good place.
