CAN I ASK A FAVOUR ..
I would really appreciate your support! If you enjoy what we do then it would mean the world to me if you would take a moment to give it a lovely 5-star review on the podcast app you use. It helps get the word out and reviews in the first few weeks really help. It would mean such a lot. Oh and don’t forget to subscribe to it on your favourite podcast app so that you don’t miss an episode.
Thank you so much,
With love
