Promote world peace by listening to this podcast. Share it. Learn it. The value of ALL the content that Abby has provided for free is priceless! Her energy is ALWAYS, yes I said always, on and focused towards the listener. I’ve been following podcasts for over 10 years. This is, without a doubt, the creme de la creme regarding content, regularity, and consistency. I am so grateful to have access to this knowledge. It has dramatically improved my mindset, and therefor my life experiences. Please give it a try!

I started listening to Abby when my relationship was going through tough times. With her no nonsense guidance I was able to think clearer, keep my emotions in check and focus on what I could control which was me. I am better for taking care of me and focusing on me during these difficult times. Her podcast about social anxiety was also spot on and I wished I had heard it sooner. I signed up for her LoveLetter and appreciate her help.

Abby is wonderful, down to earth and easy to understand. But if you expect to change by listening to one episode you are not in the right place. You are here because you want change. It will be work. It will take time to change habits and love yourself. Abby has the tools right here. But reading them once will be enough. It only works if you work it. Love and good luck!

Just listened to episode 289 and I’m hooked!! What a great informative lesson and I look forward to delving deeper into the podcast episodes. So much enlightenment in this episode and I just thoroughly enjoyed it!!! Thank you for providing wonderful free content!

Abby never disappoints. I learn things every episode. I love the communications style here and the general tone of hard work mixed with little welcome sprinkle of humor.

Hello Dr Abby, The reason I gave you a two star is due to too many ads that take up at least two minutes of each episode. Please take out the ads for the upcoming episode going forward.

I wish I could rate more than five stars! I’ve only listened to 3 podcast so far & I already love Abby!!! The podcast I listened to really explained a lot of my haunting behaviors!!! It’s one thing to have good, valuable information on hand, but when it’s also backed up by research & a licensed professional..it makes it even better! Abby, you are truly a kind soul to offer such valuable advice free of charge! (Don’t start charging btw lol ) & I pray that you are blessed with longevity & happiness! Much love ❤️

I’ve been listening to you for months now and just now I am getting to a review. Really the only podcast I listen to. Love what you’re doing and all your free downloads and weekly love letter. Can’t say any more great things about it I just really appreciate what Abby does. Thank you!

Every time I listen to this podcast, I walk away with so much knowledge even though I have been doing self improvement work for over 30 years. You never cease to give me another little gem, keep it up you’re amazing!!!!

I’m so glad I find your podcast! It’s life changing to me , I am in the process to going back and listen all the past podcasts.. one by one! Becoming my daily routine. Thank you for all your tips and advice and everything! Inspiring me to be better.

I have been listening to this podcast for over a year, and I am grateful for it daily. It has transformed my interactions with others and with myself. Dr. Abby lovingly calls attention to the patterns that we build up in our heads without realizing, and then practically shows you how to work through them in every single episode. She is incredibly wise, passionate, and kind—her authenticity is refreshing. If you’re unsure where to begin, start with the “204-Step-by-Step Guide to Starting Your Day Right”, and “003-Thinking Your Day has 24 Hours is Wrong” for time management and self-care. I recommend “124-How to Listen Without Getting Defensive or Hurt” and “252-Instead of Date Nights, Work on Micro-Connections” for relationship work. You can’t go wrong wherever you start, this podcast is a gift.

Dr Abbey has helped me in all my relationships! I listen to her everyday on my way to work. I am learning so much about setting boundaries and gaining confidence. She also has helped my marriage and my parenting. I share her wisdom with wvweyon!

I can’t say enough good things about Abby’s podcast. I came across her podcast when I was in a time of need of learning how to cope with my depression and stress. Now I stay because there is so much I’m learning from her episodes. She is relatable, funny and always leaves you with good tips and tricks to use. If you are unable to see a therapist or need help sorting out some troubles or just want to learn about yourself I highly recommend listening. Also, her episodes are ad free which is also a treat! Thank you Abby for having this resource 🫶🏻

All of Dr. Abby’s advice and resources are so very helpful and have brought me more happiness for myself and in my relationship. I looked forward to every episode. Thank you so much!

Finally found where to write reviews! This is the longest I have stuck to listening to any podcast and that is because Abby’s podcast is the most useful. That is not only because I’m training to be a couple’s therapist, but because she gives me tools to improve my personal life. She helps me make sense of the most prominent difficult feelings and struggles I experience and provides evidence-based clear steps to improvement. She is also so caring and sweet; I feel like her voice is the mother I never had. Love you (Dr.) Abby! :)

I was recently diagnosed with CPTSD and my therapist recommended your podcast. It has been so helpful for me to not feel alone on my healing journey and it really helps to listen in between my therapy sessions. I love the way you lay it out.

I cannot begin to express how my life has changed since I began listening to Abby. TRULY how do I thank this woman enough for all the knowledge she has given me using her data or insights or the ACTUAL results utilizing her life hacks and skill sets have given my life! Literally priceless. And also free! Makes me think of that saying, “nothing is free, you have to PAY ATTENTION” and I now set aside time to listen to a podcast a day. She never disappoints! And you can just go to YouTube and search Abby Medcalf and any topic of interest or concern in your life and there she is… ready with well researched data to give you insight, love and support. She (and her listeners I’m sure) are oft moved to tears! THANK YOU ABBY!

Very distracting.

I’ve been listening to Abby for years! She has continued to give me insights into myself, different partners, and friends and family. No matter the topic I’m struggling with, Abby has done a podcast full of reliable information that is easily digestible with actionable steps. This podcast is an oasis in a time of information overload. Thanks Abby!

They are full of helpful information with lots of actionable steps and insights. She’s helped me with my fiancé and I’m so grateful for this podcast. Seriously life changing!

I came across this podcast earlier this year because I was in a really hard place. After listening to one of her podcasts, I found myself using her tips and tricks and my life became a lot better because of it. Her suggestion of tracking feelings when you are around certain people helped me realize one of my friends was always making me feel very unloved and bad and it helped me let go of that friendship that I might not have otherwise. I kept listening and I love her take on relationships and listening to her has been a blessing.

I really love these podcasts. Abby clearly does a ton of research before each episode and that’s so appreciated. She’s also funny and cheeky which I really like. Thanks so much for what you do!

Thank you Abby. This podcast changed me and changed my life. I am a better friend and partner thanks to the insights and tools Abby offers. For free. I am so grateful for this podcast, for Abby!

The day I discovered Abby’s podcast, thank you Lauren, is the day my life changed. It always crushes me how much she cares, she loves and empowers. She always makes me feel better about myself. She is a game changer.

Abby absolutely crushes it in every subject she touches on. I’ve been blown away at how distinctly she speaks on relationships and how deeply true her knowledge and experience permeates into my own experiences. Spot on, can’t wait to read her books too.

Abby’s lovely personality shines through, plus her enthusiasm and obvious expertise in her field. She is the wise and caring auntie you’ve been looking for.

Abby is great. Her tips and steps are practical and effective. One thing though, when she says “I can go on…” she means it! Lots of content about Abby herself 😂

This will improve all of your relationships and covers it all.. children, spouse, work, self balance, addiction, mental health but most importantly change the relationship with yourself! And of course backed my research. Blunt, funny, down to earth! Legit can’t binge listen fast enough. Abby, thank you for your dedication to changing the world!!

Your podcast help me so many times every time I’m struggling with some thing in my relationship podcast right at the right moment to help me practice improving my relationship I can’t say enough, Abby, you’re completely amazing and I passed your book along even to my kids with their relationship so young adults as I think this is a fundamental for having a healthy relationship I can’t believe you give this out for free just amazing please forgive my misspelling as I’m dyslexic, felt compelled to write a review

The love I have for Abby and her work is truly hard to sum up into words. No matter what the episode title or content is, her knowledge and expertise bring my mind and heart right back to where it should be within my marriage…even when I don’t want to hear it! Abby, you have improved my marriage by way of keeping my mindset clear and my intentions loving and kind through some truly difficult relationship trials. I have re-listened to your book 3x now and whenever I feel my marriage slipping out of my control, I hit play again and I am brought right back into my path of loving kindness. I love you right back, Abby!! Thank you for what you do and for making the world a better place, one heart and mind at a time. I have learned (from you) that to be happily married is a daily choice, backed by daily actions of connection, understanding, communication, and compassion…I’ll be here listening for as long as you are here pouring into us! THANK YOU! Love, Cameron

Okay one I don’t listen to podcast’s constantly but I can’t get enough of this show! Two, I had to google how to even find the review section on a podcast to do this because this is a relationship, I hear ya! 🫡 ma’am yes ma’am! But for real I can’t even begin to describe how great this podcast is and how it’s changed so much of my life. I’m not in a relationship, this literally has just helped me grow as a person. My mom shared this podcast a month or so back to help me with some difficult coworkers and I have been obsessed ever since. My quality of life at work as improved so much from Abby’s advice and tips. I’ve challenged my avoidance behaviors by confronting/communicating with my boss, I’m trying to stop complaining and holding onto resentment (so much happier), I’ve stopped self-sabotage on my top goals, I’ve started getting up early and focusing on my sleep and mornings, I’ve started meditating and practicing mindfulness, and 👏 I 👏 could 👏 keep 👏 going 👏!!! And those are just the tangible things! Those don’t even cover the things I’ve learned in general that have helped my awareness or perspective on situations. This podcast has even helped me realize how much I would thrive with therapy thats tailored to me. I’ve always put therapy off even if I know it’s what I should do or even need to do, but I’ve been anxious that I will just vent, not make any change and get shamed or frustrated when I to each session. This podcast had been general but instructive enough for me to try my hand at something similar to therapy, but at a distance and with no pressure. And it’s made me actually really excited to find a therapist near me to help continue growing in a more tailored, specific way. I’m still making my way through the show, kind of at random, but this has been such a god send for me and I seriously cannot thank Abby enough. PS: I hope I haven’t somehow missed this but I’d love to show my appreciation through a gift. (My love language ♥️) If there is a way I can donate to the podcast for production or maybe a crowd fund for low-income therapy clients of Abby’s- I’d love to give some love back and pass it along. I’ll keep and ear out if that’s possible 👂

I am a self aware narcissist and am trying to improve my relationships with my loved ones. Dr. Abby has a unique way of presenting information that captures and holds the listeners attention. She breaks things down to where someone like me who has low emotional intelligence can understand and relate to. I really like the way that she holds the listener accountable for their behaviors, which is something I desperately need. I have been able to change my perspective on relationships and make noticeable positive changes in them just from listening to a few of her episodes. Her podcast is tied with Dr. Eric Perry’s “Recovery For The Narcissist” for my favorite podcast. Thank you Dr. Abby!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few weeks now. Super helpful but she also keeps it funny and entertaining. I truly look forward to listening to her episodes and I’ve notice a huge improvement in my life after incorporating her tips. I always giggle when she tells us to go write a review RIGHT now (and I never do it cause I listen to her on Spotify), but she deserves it and I know this will help more people find her and apply her awesome advice to real life 🥹😍

I just found this podcast (read an article on your website then started following). I just finished the Jealousy episode and, like all the episodes, I really appreciate the actionable steps given for doing the work. There’s a lot of whiney psychobabble confessional podcasts out there and I appreciate the brevity and logic of yours. Thank you for all that you do!

I listen to this podcast on my walks and absolutely love them. Straight forward, real issues with real solutions. Always thought provoking and helpful. Great job!!!!’

I am a mess in my current relationship and stumbled upon Abby listening to another podcast. Her advice, along with the free tools she provides have been life saving to me. Her morning meditation on stopping negative thoughts was the sole thing that helped me get up from bed during a very challenging time. This is life long advice and for sure, anything I listen to and go ahead and try, has helped me gain peace and clarity, although it does come with some pain, sometimes. Thank you so much for everything you do Abby!

I LOVE this podcast. It simplifies ideas that make sense! I found it looking for a “let go of ressentment podcast and now I’m hooked. Buy the book- it’s great. So excited to dive into my new tool kits! Thank you Abby!

Dr. Abby, while wise, talks too much. Get to the point. And the advice about the episode on staying friends with an ex is horrible. Shaming “Michelle” for her situation and how she’s feeling is unbelievably unhealthy. Any man/woman who’s stays friends with an ex, while dating someone else of the same gender, is bad form. There’s no need for it. Michelle’s feelings are valid and her bf needs to end the relationship with his ex. Pretty simple.

Love the advice and information from this podcast. Very enjoyable and relatable content. Keep up the great work.

Amazing podcast. It’s very informative. This should be a prerequisite listen before entering into a relationship.

This podcast has really changed my life for the better. Her tips and tools are straightforward and easy to implement into your relationships right away. She makes things seem doable and not intimidating. She’s super down to earth, which makes listening to her way more fun and relatable. I can’t get enough of Abby!

I just started listening this week and my only regret is that I didn’t discover this podcast sooner in life. It’s informational, transformative and an absolute pleasure to listen to. I have learned more in 3 days than I have in the past 10 years. Thank you so much for pouring your heart and soul and wonderful personality into this podcast. I am so grateful. I have been sharing many episodes with my partner as well and I can tell you that you have two new fans! Wishing you all the best for season 6 and beyond, I’ll be here listening.

I love this podcast. Abby is easy to listen to, enlightening and fun. I have learned so much after being in a 39 year marriage and now being in a new relationship. I await each new episode. Thank you!!

I absolutely ADORE this podcast💗💗💗I use Abby’s advice with my boyfriend, my friends, my parents, and even myself! She’s saved me in so many scenarios. You can tell she really cares and wants the best for you. It doesn’t feel like a podcast at all, I often feel like I’m on the phone with a family member. I have a therapist, but I just love that I can have Abby on while I’m cooking, cleaning, driving, doing homework, and even in the shower!! I seriously believe everyone should be learning from Abby because I promise your relationships will THRIVE. Mine have grown so much since I started listening, and I’m so thankful because it has really changed my life. I only wish the episodes were longer because I go through them so fast!!

Her podcast is through helpful and relevant! She is positively a great speaker and her episodes are all so helpful

Abby, I was laughing so hard at certain points of this episode. It’s like you really were in my house, seeing all the things! I have a high tolerance for crumbs… my boyfriend does NOT. Thank goodness he doesn’t mind cleaning them 😌. I am a new listener and I write reviews when I feel strongly about something. I love your content and I appreciate you sharing it with the world for free. Keep up the amazing work and candor!

One of my absolute favorite podcasts! Dr. Abby Medcalf is THE relationship guru. She is a mentor and motivator for not only romantic relationships, but relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and lights a fire within for personal growth within. I love her is humor, sass, and no-fluff approach to topics. Don’t pass this one up!

Abby has a great, relatable personality and delivery of incredible advice! I found her through the episode “What to do if your kids don’t like the person you’re dating”. Thank you.

That recent trauma bonding episode hit different. you’re doing amazing Abby 🔥🔥

Abby’s advice, always research-backed, plus her joy-filled and “hilarious” authenticity, make listening to this podcast sooo worthwhile! I laugh, I do the steps, I share with my clients and loved ones. And it WORKS, like she says! Listen, share, and make your relationships so much more honest, fun, and easy. Thank you Abby!! 💛
