I Know How You Feel
Ever had a moment where you thought- Does anyone else feel this way?
Welcome to I Know How You Feel, a podcast for common experiences, not so commonly shared. This is a platform for growth, connection and mindful conversation. We dive into messy, beautiful, painful and sometimes ridiculous realities of being human- through honest conversation, humor, sitting with hard questions and sharing stories to remind you that you are not alone. Everyone has a unique journey they are on, and we are here to honor that. We may not know exactly how you feel, but we sure can empathize.
Thanks for joining the conversation. We are so glad you are here.
