Story
In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved. Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them.

Story
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Story
The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Insightful- Be You
I learned to not hold back and your true desires and your true personality. Easy to get caught up in who you think you should be or a proper way to react but not being genuine can only lead you astray from others and your true self.

Fabulous new way to do enactments in therapy!
A fabulous new way (blindfolded & in different characters) to do enactments in therapy. I can't wait to try it with a couple. Vivian Baruch, M.Couns, Sydney, Australia.

this was all sorts of uncomfortable for me.
Guess I'm not comfortable with role playing. Squirming the whole time. Esther is still amazing, really love her stuff. This was the one I liked the least though.
You should listen to it, to see if you squirm too! Haha!!

So moving
This is such a beautiful healing playful session supporting a couple in reclaiming sexuality after trauma. I laughed and cried and was so moved.

Writing the same review of the whole set of these
So I'm not going to review each of these individually. They're all a great listen and I can't recommend one over the others. If you're in a place in your relationship where you're not happy and looking for steps you could take these are a great place to start. Esther does one-off sessions with these people and helps these see what is going on, and what they can do to change things. You don't have to be going through the exact same scenario to see some common threads, and find bits and pieces that will be helpful to you.
I'm going to leave the same review for each of these as you should really listen to all of them, rather than trying to pick and choose which you might find relevant.

Fascinating peak in real life relationship
A pattern examined, unusual for gender stereotypes. A woman who is wildly sexual, and a man that seeks sex, more from a place of love and connection. It was fascinating to hear that this pattern exists as well.

An amazing way of therapy
I very much enjoy listening to the sessions as in a way it helps me think of my issues that I've had. I know that there are many others out there that have similar problems and it's amazing to hear Esther provide the coaching, solutions and her thoughts as well! Thank you for sharing! I look forward to the next sessions!

WOW!! Amazing!
I'm already a huge fan of Esther, but this was just amazing. I got goosebumps, teared up. There's so much connection and this is such a visceral session. Thank you for sharing!
