Critical, Informative & Inspiring
I am always excited for a new episode of Statements. The hosts bring in incredible guest speakers that discuss so many varying topics that many people aren’t talking about or know about. I always finish knowing something new and having a new interest to further learn. Highly recommend this podcast for anyone looking for an interesting and informative listen!
