TESTIMONIALS

What People Are Saying

"I am a non traditional student in my sophomore year of college. This podcast has answered so many of my questions. This is my daily motivation podcast. I listen to it while driving, doing work around the house, and sometimes at one of my two jobs. As a single parent with no co-parent help, listening to this has kept me with my feet on the ground and not giving up on my goals."

- blueskies87

“I listen to this podcast every day when I commute to school. I started off with little to no knowledge about this entire process and through this podcast I have learned so much. I’ve never written a review but this podcast has helped make my future much more attainable.”

- kmshivok

“Ryan Gray is the GOAT! I am a 3rd year premed student at UVA and finding this Podcast has really set me up for success in the future.
