Seamossgirlies - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I really love the actual information discussed in the pod, and you guys have good chemistry together as podcasters which is crucial. However, I’ve read other comments about Kate coming off as really judgemental and acting superior to others who know less about wellness, and I have to say I completely agree. In one episode she even compared her and Emma to “regular people” insinuating that they’re above the average person just because they’re able to lead lives that revolve around health & wellness. There becomes a point where sarcasm is just too negative and frustrating to listen to. Please listen to this advice, if you acted less full of yourself it would improve the content so much; having humility is much more on par with wellness.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years & I love it! I’ve learned so much about wellness & love the honesty in their content. I look forward to listening to their podcast every week!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for about two years now and I absolutely love it! Honestly I think a lot of the bad reviews are from people who aren’t the target audience and just don’t get it? I’ve been into health and wellness since early college (I’m 25 now) and I totally get the perspective. I also just love the light hearted/memey feel. As someone that’s been in the wellness space for a while I can see why some people might think it’s judgey, but since Kate and Emma have also been in the wellness space for a while I think it just comes from a place of experience. I love all the info and nuance of this podcast but if you’re new to wellness I could see why it would be overwhelming. I don’t think that’s bad. I just don’t think the bad reviews are super fair or accurate. The wellness space is constantly shifting and growing and Kate and Emma do a great job relaying info in a relatable way.

This podcast is perfect for someone who lives + breathes gut health. I love Kate and Emma’s no nonsense approach to health and wellness. It’s a great listen — cannot recommend enough!

unfortunately I have to unsubscribe. I loved this podcast when it started but as it’s continued, it seems like Kate in particular doesn’t appreciate the responsibility of being a health educator. She delivers all of her information has with the tone of a teacher who is frustrated with the class, and instead makes snarky comments all the time about having “already covered this in a previous episode” like she’s angry at us for daring to waste her time with our questions. I wish we would hear from Emma more, because I really like the way she delivers information and she seems much more sympathetic to the audience and the various stages of knowledge they’re at, but it honestly seems like Kate dominates 80% of the podcast conversation. It’s a shame because I love the community surrounding the pod and really enjoyed the early days before the fame. I just hope Kate takes a step back soon and recognizes that her status as a ~health goddess~ doesn’t give her a right to act like a know-it-all, and acknowledged the kind of responsibility that comes along with being a health & wellness influencer especially to an audience of younger women.

I liked the idea of this pod, but the execution makes it tough to listen to. It often comes across snarky, judgmental, and hypocritical. They talk about how unqualified other people are to give health advice and put out supplements, but they do the same thing. They make fun of fitness trackers until they hop on the bandwagon for a sponsor. They seem to equivocate “wellness” with morality and it’s very strange.
