Description

We’re Kris and Mads—sisters, readers, and the creators behind a thriving book and screen club that explores the stories that shape us. On this podcast, we deep dive into the books we’re reading, the shows and films we’re watching, and the bigger themes behind the stories we love. We interview authors, talk with fellow creators, and share honest conversations about storytelling, creativity, and what it means to live a full, meaningful life. Our mission is simple: Share meaningful stories. Seek what matters most. Be joyfully authentic. And empower people to be free and aim high.
