Power Within with The Eastwoods
Join us - Amy, your Heart Whisper Therapist, and Vicky, Queen of Rapid Hypnosis, and we together make The Eastwoods.
Each week, we'll be talking all things, therapy, hypnotherapy, and couples relationship therapy as well as giving insights into our experience as a same-sex couple, building a family, and going through the care system, fostering and on our way to adoption too.
It's real life, and we'll tell it how it is - including all the s*** in between!
