"Steph and Calvin are intelligent and engaging hosts and I always learn something new when tune in. It’s clear that they put a lot of effort into the show 🙂 keep it coming!"
Super Insightful

"I found this podcast via their Special Episode: Finding Meaning in Sudden Death. It’s a wonderful and powerful discussion about death and the grief and sorrow that comes after. It was so well done and compelling. We need more of these conversations. It helps to “normalize” something that we will all deal with — namely the death of a loved one."
Difficult Conversations Made Accessible

"Calvin and Steph do a wonderful job of producing open, honest, and thought-provoking dialog in this podcast. This is not a typical podcast designed to push an agenda or narrative, and instead provides the audience with topics and discussion points that challenge the norm with an intent to stimulate positive change. When you listen you will find a wide range of great perspectives across a diverse set of topics with dialog that gets you to think out of the box."

"Super listenable. It truly feels like the most salient parts of a longer conversation. Fun, fresh, and there’s insight after insight. Love that each episode is fairly short too."
Fun, delightful, and smart

"Steph and Calvin cover modern issues that I wish I learned in school- like the history of the 40 hour work week, to how to live and work remotely. Lively and informative - no fluff 👍🙏"
Lives up to its name!

Overcoming imposter syndrome

"I found Steph through her appearances on MFM, then I started following her on Twitter (pure gold), and I found her podcast from one of her Twitter posts (throw that in your attribution numbers). She is so well spoken, has a great way of phrasing ideas, and clearly does her research. Best of luck Steph growing the podcast!"
Steph is brilliant
October 2021
"Really insightful, full of great insights. Some episodes I listen to twice because there is a lot of great nuggets to digest."
Great Information
October 2021
"A few things I love about this podcast: the format centers around a conversation between 2 people instead of interviews, so the episodes gain depth over time; the topics are broad, yet connected - so it doesn’t feel like I’m listening to the same conversations on repeat; both guests are knowledgeable and the podcast feels like an invitation, not a sales pitch. Looking forward to how it evolves over time!"
Smart, fresh takes on interesting topics
September 2021
"I came across Steph’s content when she volunteered for a webinar for an online course I am doing & was extremely impressed by her thought processes. This is genuinely my first ever podcast review but felt obliged to give 5 stars to the ‘rethinking productivity & how you spend your time’ podcast. There is plenty of noise out there on this topic but this is one of if not the best snippets of 30 minute content I’ve come across. Simple, actionable & relatable frameworks to absorb & implement. Awesome work!"
Phenomenal content
