Krista, thank you for sharing this great talk with Mike Dooley. I've been following your Instagram posts for a while now and thought what you were about was so good for the world. I'm flying to Las Vegas right now for a conference and because your Instagram post about getting great reviews included a link to the Castbox app and your podcast it was easy to finally dive in and listen! I love Mike's take on life and subscribe to his Notes from the Universe and thought your questions and his anawers were both so on point and insightful. I also commend you on your format which includes providing listeners with some key details about the topics discussed right at the top which not everyone does - very deliberate and very helpful for both first-time and long-time listeners I'm sure! Suffice to say I was as impressed as I thought I would be based on your posts and I look forward to catching up on all your seasons of episodes. Congrats on your success and thanks for doing what you do! @jamesgil
I love this podcast. Krista has amazing guests who share their wisdom and experience. Krista is a warm and inviting host.
