I was really excited to listen to this but found it a bit wishy washy. I wanted more facts about the ladies’ lives to really connect to them - e.g what drugs were in the bra? What drugs was she addicted to? How did they actually feel at certain points? Not what happened but how they felt when it did.

Must agree with a previous reviewer that this is no way near as good as you, me and the big C... yet (for a start if a dog had barked throughout an interview you could be sure that any of the you, me, c presenters would have made that hilarious - it was just ignored in this?!). I’ll listen once more to give it another chance.

Congratulations to the girls on their recovery.

Refreshing honest, insightful, inspiring and what helps this from getting too heavy are the presenters sense of humour. This helps me better understand people close to me who have struggled with addiction and I hope it helps to challenge stigma. I’ve subscribed and can’t wait to hear more.

Honest and real. I can’t wait for the rest of these podcasts. It will speak to and support many people.

A mix of information, how recovery works and most of all heart wrenching honesty that gives understanding and hope. It is fabulous and a must for any addicts, families, friends and also those working in health and social care or just want to understand more Well done you are amazing people.

Thank you for your bravery and openness and honesty . This programme is needed to break down stigma and shame . Well done

I was really looking forward to this but found it quite confusing to listen to. I think it would have been good if they had done an introduction and told people about themselves. I don’t think the dynamic between the two ladies works. Found myself zoning out soon enough. Sadly doesn’t compare to the big c and me.

Amazing women - a fascinating podcast - can’t wait to hear more.

No substance to it

Society has definitely been missing this podcast. As someone trying to support an addict, listening to this was incredibly comforting and enlightening. Really looking forward to listening to different perspectives throughout the series.

So relatable. I barely ever review podcasts but this is stunning! Thanks for being so honest. Can’t wait for more

Good work ladies. Great insight not only to addiction, but the addictive traits and mental health that could lead to serious problems. 👍

Real life, real struggle and possibly truly life changing for someone listening to this.

My first time ever listening to a pod cast, nothing quite caught me before. But absolutely #hooked as soon as I started listening. Honest, reflective and informative. Can’t wait for the next episode.

Listened yesterday I can relate to so much of your story’s, apart from the rehab part I ended up in prison as a result of my drug use last year, am now trying to stay clean but it’s so hard with out help. You guys are such an inspiration

Bare and honest account of the girls ‘rock bottom’. Can’t wait to hear how they’re coping in recovery and to hear what other exceptional guests they have onboard bringing their expertise.

Honest, interesting, important. Thank you for sharing your stories. An excellent listen.

God damn, secret drinking, the devils game

Seeking help as it is, but what a insight, thank you, can only get stronger hey

Being Jades Dad I obviously am going to be biased, however I honestly believe that this is a fantastic opportunity to help others in similar situations as well as debunk the stereotype and stigma.

Well done both of you and keep going from strength to strength.

Really enjoyed hearing things from a different angle, very likeable hosts, very honest

Please keep it up

I was glued to this, really honest and factual.

Loved the first episode and will be looking forward to the next one xx

What a fantastic listen. Taking the stigma out of addiction is crucial in helping people realise their own issues. Thanks very much. I’m looking forward to the whole series.

As someone with a family member who suffers with addiction, it is refreshing to hear it spoken about so openly. It is also interesting to hear from the perspective of an addict and has made me consider my feelings on addiction and the impact it has had/continues to have on my family. Thank you!

This is brilliant Melissa and Jade. So admire your honesty and courage. You will give hope and support to so many.
