Nice to experience the village during the day

While the village brings me much comfort at night, trips to it also help me ease into my days. I’m excited for this podcast as well.

Heart warming stories we need to hear

These are wonderful stories to listen to first thing in the morning for a gentle and positive start to the day. Also great any time of the day. I love to listen to the baking stories when I’m baking and the gardening stories when I garden. It’s a great respite from all the negativity in media. When I start feeling anxious and overwhelmed the village of nothing much is a safe haven.Thank you so much for producing this podcast.

My Evening Weeknight Ritual

My days are always extremely full with a wonderful & busy toddler and a job that doesn’t slow down. My favorite way to relax each weeknight is listening to this podcast while doing a jigsaw puzzle — a ritual that just brings me so much peace in the evenings.

Thank you for creating such a lovely, peaceful, and relaxing podcast!

SIMPLICITY at its Finest!

I love Everything about this Podcast: deep breath to begin, basic yet interesting stories, slow and soft-paced (making you remember special moments in your own life), Kathryn’s voice, the donations. I’m so glad I found this by accident!

actually magic

I've been using all of Kathryn''s podcasts for a while now, and they are so effective that they are impacting the lives of people around me. I am sleeping better, so my partner is sleeping better. That in turn creates a better environment for every single thing, place, and person we come across throughout the day. Katheyn''s good vibes are my good vibes are now everybody's good vibes.
