    I’ve really been enjoying this podcast. Particularly the episode on rejection, with Susie Moore. It’s given me a lot to think about!

    NEEDED!
    I had been looking for a podcast like this since the original Hello Sunshine podcasts (How It Is, and especially you, etc) went off the air. To be honest, I hadn’t found anything like them since. It’s the perfect podcast to throw on during the morning commute because every episode has such a positive aura, while being substantive and directed towards the things modern women face, but there’s also lighter material on other days. It’s the perfect mixture. Please keep this going!

    Love the energy and Vibe
    I really am enjoying this show. It’s a break from all the negativity to download on stories of the day - like catching up with girlfriends. Not that it’s surface- but it adds to my day instead of stressing me out. Good lineup of topics. I like the one with the producer on it— they should have him pop in more. Very cool guests also.

    Love the bookclub chats!
    I am so excited that these authors interview the Reese’s Bookclub authors each month (along with other authors of great books). I have recently started listening the last couple of weeks and I have loved the interviews. The first one with Reese is amazing! So interesting! I love how Hello Sunshine wants to empower and encourage women.

    Danielle Robay .. love you and your speak!!
    I will listen to everything danielle robay is a part of. She is authentic, smart and on top of issues i want to listen to and learn about. Hello sunshine and danielle’s pretty smart are women empowerment but appeal to all ages and genders. Simone snd Danielle are so informed and researched and they sre not afraid to speak their mind.

    Don’t be fooled by all that pink shimmer
    Both hosts are smart, informed and opinionated so even though the topics tend to be on the light side, they ground the discussion with their intelligence and humanity. There’s nothing I wouldn’t want to hear their take on and I’m listening every day that I can.

    Thought provoking and positive
    Love this new podcast- they’ve hit on some tough topics but I’m still left optimistic after hearing the incredible stories and work of the women they’ve interviewed.

    Great first impression
    I heard about this podcast in an ad and gave it a listen. I was in a really negative mind space and the episode I played truly helped (the stunning effects of optimism). Can’t wait to listen to more! ❤️❤️🥲

  • RoseGlow64
    Couldn’t get through the first episode
    I’m sure the hosts are lovely people but after 10+ minutes of meaningless banter about their personal lives, I had to shut it off.
  • LexA82765
    So Good!
    The daily dose of optimism and reflection you need. Love!
  • MZolt
    First episode is great and Danielle Robay.. love you!
    This pod delivered just that.., bright and encouraging information. Danielle and Simone are great together and fun to hear them banter. I was feeling happy after this show

    Superficial
    I listened to the Reese Witherspoon episode. For a show named the Bright Side, who’s first episode was titled, writing your own story, I had expectations, whether appropriate or not, that this show would have some substance to it, as in soulful, maybe even spiritual. At the very least the show with this title suggests internal and personal reference points for happiness. However, the hosts spent the first part of the show discussing the social pressures and resulting complexity / grandiosity of modern birthdays for children, their personal preferences for using filters on photos in social media posts, and teeth whitening. Certain types of young women would probably respond to this, and perhaps I’m way outside of the demographic, but the title was “writing your own story”, not maintaining one’s social image. But apparently, this is the type of program that looks to movie stars for life advice. It must sell, but it’s doubtful that it really helps.

    Big fan of Simone!
    So looking forward to this podcast, and for a more positive take on what’s going on in the world and uplifting stories/ conversations to be had. This is a great duo here, can’t wait to listen!
