Packed with nuggets
I am loving this podcast! Lori is so good at interviewing her guests…and she generously shares her window into the interesting conversations with us podcast listeners. I feel like we all need a Lori in our lives!
Sleep Talking with Dr Krakow
Lori is a fantastic interviewer as well as having the knack for bringing up personal experiences with sleep to keep things in conversation mode. As much as I love teaching, conversations are so much more refreshing and informative than didactics. Well done, Lori. Thanks so much the opportunity to speak with your audience worldwide listeners.
Weaving it all together
One of the things I love most about this podcast is that it brings together so many different threads: politics, religion, self-help, organizing for change, etc. In a world so focused on individual parts, listening to folks engaging with the whole is emboldening and exciting.
