What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I used to believe that living a luxurious life required a lot of money—but I couldn’t have been more wrong. Through this podcast, along with Shannon’s books and blog, I’ve discovered that true luxury lies in quality over quantity, in savoring life’s simple pleasures, and in creating a life that reflects my own values and desires, not what others expect. Her Petit Plaisirs and weekly This & That segments have introduced me to countless books, films, series, food, and more—many of which I never would have found otherwise . Highly recommend to anyone looking to enrich their everyday life.
