About The Reflection Diary

From the publisher's feed

As humans we sometimes forget to take a moment and reflect on what's happening in our lives and the lives of the people around us. TRD is a podcast where we inspire each other to take a minute and reflect about everything happening around us in a safe space. We talk about what you’re thinking of and more: Gen z problems, stories that inspired us, our safe spaces and we might occasionally spill some tea.
