    Great resource
    I have been in the field for over 30 years. I appreciate how this podcast offered so many learning opportunities for me by listening to all the guests, books mentioned, and joining their facebook group. I find the host, Shane Birkel extremely giving, open and humble. I can’t thank enough for his courage to have taken the journey.

    Want to like this more…
    I really love this insightful content, and there are a lot of good nuggets in each episode, so props for putting it together! My issue is that the host doesn’t speak with conviction. There are so many uhhhhs, ummmmms, and pauses in his speech, it’s distracting. I know it’s meant to be largely unscripted/conversational, and this is to some extent just how we all talk, so I try to give grace. But it doesn’t feel as authoritative as it could.

    This podcast is so helpful!
    I am new to working with couples, and this podcast has been so helpful for me! I enjoy all of the episodes and hearing from professionals from all over! Thank you so much for this podcast!

    Great podcast!
    I have learned a great deal from this podcast. Thank you Shane. I would love to hear episodes on grief and addiction.
  • DrMom90212
    Good content if you can give over the verbal pauses
    Helpful information and content, but the interviewee (eg: Kim Ploussard) has so many verbal pauses, including “you know,” rhetorical “right,” and “hmmm/umm,” it’s hard to listen. It’s like she’s formulating the responses for the first time during this interview. I recommend that she listen to her own interview to improve her communication style.

    Suggestion
    Thx for this, great content! But I would love it more if you can change the music on both ends, coz it's really not friendly to the physical health of ears, and personally unbearable. Listener located in China, keep on your good work!

    Fantastic (and much needed) podcast highlighting “the best of the best” in the field of couples therapy. Lots of deep dives into solid models, sub specialties and relevant cutting edge issues.

    Great podcast!
    I have loved listening to these interviews and have gained a lot of insight into many different models and approaches for working with couples. I love how Shane is able to hold and present all of these different perspectives - and I appreciate that Shane really lets his guests shine. Honestly, it took me listening to a couple of episodes to get used to his style, but now his 'way' of interviewing and being with his guests is one of the things that makes this podcast so enjoyable to listen to. Highly recommended!!
