The Calm Christmas Podcast with Beth Kempton - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Beth Kempton is a gifted podcaster. Each episode is so thoughtful and inspiring. Her voice is soothing and lovely. The content is artful yet useful. I always come way from listening with a sense of deeper peace and gratitude for life.

I’ve listened to this podcast during the holiday season after reading Beth’s book “Calm Christmas & A Happy New Year”, a lovely book if you’re interested. Beth offers poems, writings (some of her own & other authors), ideas, recipes, etc all in her gentle voice. This year was especially helpful as my Dad died in November & Beth had an episode dedicated to the sadness that can be felt during the holidays for a variety of reasons. I will listen every holiday season she offers this podcast (and maybe even re-listen too)!

The loveliest, most uplifting and thoughtful podcast, I just found it in 2024 after reading several of Beth’s books and subscribing to her Substack. Full of storytelling and truths, rich with lore and history, down to earth food and crafts, gentle and inspiring. My absolute favorite.

Such a wonderful, soothing podcast for the holidays. I so looked forward to every episode. It calmed me and soothed as I walked my dog out in the cold days of hustle and bustle. A welcome friend. Looking forward to Feb. 29th episode and will have to listen to previous years episodes! Thank you. Wabi Sabi is one of my favorite books and it showed up in my life when I really needed it. Look forward to Kokoro.
