This is literally the best podcast I’ve ever listened to. Leigh is an amazing podcaster and even more human being. I spent every episode having imaginary conversations with her. Thank you for your articulate, compelling, and compassionate telling of your story and never apologize for telling it. It helped me and I’m sure many others.

I, a fellow westside (of LA) woman, remember hearing about this story on the news when it happened. I also have a six degree of separation from Leigh from some mutual friends so this has been a particularly haunting tale from an outsider looking in. Thank you for your honesty, vulnerability, and willingness to dive back into that night with such detail and introspection. Great podcast.

“Amazing, the courage and fortitude she has. I could visualize the chaos in the hospital and how you both felt blessed but needed your quiet time, too. Her observations of her surroundings and the attending staff members are so sharp and clear when her heart must have been crying out.”

I just have to reach out and let you know how much your podcast inspires me❤️ you are truly amazing and have so much strength. I work at a hospital currently as a substance abuse counselor with a focus on trauma-related social work. It is so eye opening to hear your version and not hearing it from professors who have treated it but from someone who lived it and is now healed enough to look back on it. Thank you, I think this is going to help me grow as a clinician.❤️

I was born with a different body, like the one you’re in now. I had natural right hand instincts, and learned to be left-handed. The worst limitations we are challenged with in life are the ones we place on ourselves. Desire, tenacity and creatitivity are how I solve problems. I’m also a recovering addict with almost 20 years clean. Don’t let it change you. Beat his ass again by being the best you possible!!!
