Storytelling Podcasts
The Complicated Simplicity Podcast is a show that deals with everyday issues we all have but are sometimes afraid to share. However, the fact of the matter is most of us are going through or have gone through the same things. Instead of going at these situations alone we discuss them and take a deeper look into why we feel the way we do as it pertains to these different experiences. So as you listen feel free to laugh, cry, think hard, and reflect as we dive deep and try simplify the things that seem so complicated.
