Thanks Dr. Wendy & Miss Jenni

They help me deal with bad relationships, and make sure that I appreciate and maintain the good ones.

Nina639361084 ,

Good Show

I like the content. The production is too much though—over doing the accommodating noises with the story.

EdwardMeyer ,

Perfect real Relationship Storytime!

Some time I don't feel like listening to music; I want someone to tell me a real story like when I was a kid. Read me story please! If you ever feel this way, then this is the perfect podcast.
I get excited for each week's new set of real relationship stories, and I find a perfect place to sit down and indulge! Thanks Dr. Wendy & Miss Jenni.
