One read is not enough. So many good points here that it will make sense no matter what stage of life you are at.

This was worth listening to for those looking to lead a quiet life but I would say mostly in terms of just hearing from a like minded person. One thing I didn’t love was It felt like the kindred newsletter was being plugged throughout, even if it’s a great community (it costs money). There was some good information here and it feels good to find a like minded person to hear from but at times it felt like an infomercial.

Enjoyed overall with some gripes but still worth a listen

Though provoking piece. I will listen to it again at some point in the future. I didn't necessarily agree with some of the points of view but nevertheless I will listen again, maybe I will be in a different frame of mind then.

The reader’s voice was so soothing and calm and perfect for the content. The words were strikingly beautiful and evoked strings feelings at times. The part about Kafka and the doll…so beautifully told. I really enjoyed this.

So lovely
