“Love your podcast….your beautiful, wise soul pilots each episode with compassion, insight and love.”

“This podcast warms my heart. Thank you for sharing such beautiful stories amidst global discouragement.”

“Season 5 was toooooooo short.”

“Tam, I listened to our conversation yesterday and loved it! You did an exceptional job. The focus on intuition was spot on and you pulled that theme through our conversation beautifully. I love that we laughed, a true sign of moving out of pain into gratitude for the lessons learned. Thanks so much, truly.”

“Wow just wow!!!”

“Thank you Tam. I listened and you are so good at your job. xoxo”

“OMG! I just listened to Dr Michelle Stevens’ story. I have no words…”

“So grateful that your guests have someone like you to talk to.”

“Tammi Faraday is consistently phenomenally well prepared to help the guest share not just their story but the insights that they have drawn from often quite challenging situations and experiences. For me, this is by far the most helpful and meaningful podcast I am listening to as I work through my own life challenges. I learn new ways of looking at and dealing with painful topics from every episode. But perhaps the most valuable lesson this podcast has shown me is that it is possible to laugh even as we work through a difficult season of life. She is always sensitive and empathetic as her guests share their story but she is truly gifted at finding the positive within the pain. It is Tammi’s way of helping us find humor and laughter that makes me feel most grateful.”

“I have listened to every episode from all 3 seasons and I have loved every single one!  You are an amazing interviewer and I am astounded every episode at just how deeply you know the subject and the intricate nuances of their lives.  I love your laugh and most importantly, I want someone to interview you!!! Can’t wait for Season 4!”

“A must listen! Fantastic listen!”

“Tammi this is seriously special. Very humbling and your questions are always full of sensitivity. Thank you x”

“Thank you Tam so much for your kindness, compassion and being so understanding.  Your outlook on life and your mission of BRAVE JOURNEYS speaks for itself. Truly honoured to connect with you … I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for you to even have a conversation with someone who used to believe the horrible things I once believed.  You really are an amazing lady!!!

“Congratulations on a brilliant season of a brilliant show that is making a difference in the world”

“When Tam asked me to do this podcast in 2022, I felt a bit anxious. “Oh goodness what will she ask me?”   “What if I don’t have the best response?”  Tam assured me it would just be an easy going conversation. She was right … Tam smoothly guided me with her professional & warm manner. I soon fell under her spell. It was such an engaging conversation where Tam shared stories of her life, her curiosity, her opinions, her perceptions. This meant a lot to me. I have now listened to ALL of her episodes and am humbled to be in such fine company.  Thank you Tam and may you live long and podcast like you do for a long long time.”

Hillary’s story of her sad, uplifting, and preparedness to sacrifice all so that her son can live his chosen life. is a huge and powerful wake up to us all. Thank you Hillary and Tam.”

“A recent podcast I did with the incredibly insightful, kind, and lovingTammi Michelle Faraday from her show #BraveJourneysPodcast out of #Austrailia.

Thank you again Tam for opening your heart to our family. #RaisingRyland“

(Season 5)

“BRAVE JOURNEYS is the best thing to have  happened to 2020!!! Tammi (and every single one of your guests), are a pure gift.”

“You need to know how much an impact BRAVE JOURNEYS is having.  I have a very dear friend who is going through an awful divorce from a cheating husband.  Your episode with Jen Waite (Season 3)  sounded EXACTLY like her story, so I shared it with her, as I wanted her to know she’s not alone.  She said that podcast was the greatest gift.  She wanted me to pass on her deepest gratitude.”

“Best podcast I have ever listened to!”

“Phenomenal as always”

“Thank you, to the loveliest podcast host EVER ❤️”

“Thank you so much for having me and giving us a space to share our story!”

“I felt compelled to write this message because the work that you do needs to be recognised! You are a person blessed with empathy, compassion and a genuine desire to change lives for the better.  I have been collecting my thoughts on your podcast with Isabelle Oderberg.  I find reading about and listening to other people’s experiences an avenue that allows my grief to find it’s voice and be recognised which is why I found the episode so cathartic. I cried and smiled and felt so recognised!  You spoke about the depth of pain that people’s comments can cause, your resolution to never ask questions and had clear genuine compassion for the millions of us out there who have experienced very real but disenfranchised grief. You also showed an authentic realisation of quite how private these journeys can be and why respecting that is so important.  But what will stay in my heart and soul forever are your words about misplaced comments from those who don’t know what to say and whilst they don’t mean harm can leave scars. I have never heard it understood this way even by the most qualified of mental health professionals.  I will be forever grateful to you. Sending bucket loads of love!

“This podcast came to me as a gift. I really want to tell you how much I appreciate it and your authenticity.“

“Not just beautiful, but ever so talented.”

“Brilliant and eye opening”

“Absolutely enthralling. Highly recommend. Looking forward to the next episodes.”

“Brilliant and eye opening“

“I know you warned us …crying from your last podcast.  You’re amazing!!!”

“I cannot begin to tell you how helpful and insightful the podcast was when you spoke to Hillary Whittington (Season 5) about Raising Ryland.  I am a psychologist who has the privilege of working with a diverse group of people. In particular I work with people in the transgender community. The pod really resonated with me as I’m working with a particular family in supporting their child in his transition and the pain that comes with this journey is unimaginable for his parents. Hillary’s story gave me so much insight and a totally other perspective of what it is like to be in so many parents shoes in a similar situation. BRAVE JOURNEYS enriches my life as a human and enhances my knowledge as a therapist of others and how others navigate their lives with unfathomable challenges. Please keep podding and posting and adding more value & light to our society.” #❤️youbravejourneys

“What happens when you marinate disappointment, lost hope, magical hope, curiosity, patience, sadness, joy, bravery and equilibrium … Tam Faraday is what you get!!!”

“Every podcast with you is like group therapy… yours is the only podcast I make time to listen to between my rapid race through life with an overcharged career and 5 gorgeous challenging kids… thank you!!! You’re amazing and I feel like I’m meeting with a real friend … who somehow penetrated into my limited inner circle of people  who I choose to and prioritise to spend time with.”

“Tam, I have to tell you, all I can say is WOW!!  You engage in such an authentic and thoughtful way and Delia’s (Ephron) story was nothing short of amazing.  As a psychologist, the greatest privilege for me is hearing another person’s story and staying with them in whatever feelings emerge.  I could have easily listened to your podcasts for hours.  Nothing like raw honesty and hearing how courageous people have been.  Thank you!!!”

“I listened to your chat with Hillary (Whittington – Season 5) and it was so moving.  You brought empathy, curiosity, respect and love to the conversation (as you do), mother to mother, human to human.”

“I absolutely love your podcast. Thank you so very much for all the hard work you put in to bring your listeners this kind of beautiful inspiration.”

“Tam, you’re such an amazing, inspiring and gorgeous woman!”

“Tam & Mark (aka Dr Mark Cross, The Anxious Shrink), this was a session that changed peoples’ thinking about anxiety and themselves. You brought down barriers and made mental health an everyday problem affecting most of us (by the sea of hands)….”

“Thank you for providing edgy, worthwhile and intelligent listening!!!”

“Look forward to many interviews by Tammi Faraday!!  You are brilliant!!!”

“I have no words!!!  How much can one person possibly endure – what a privilege to hear you share her remarkable story.”

“Such a pleasure to chat with my dear friend Tammi M Faraday as a guest on her wonderful new podcast BRAVE JOURNEYS. We covered a fair bit of ground in this one! Hope you enjoy.”
