About this listen

Welcome to Handsome Soul Stories — real conversations with the beautiful humans behind the books. Whether bestsellers or self-published gems, each story matters. We dive into the truth beneath the words — the doubts, the breakthroughs, the courage to be seen. Because while every story is unique, the deeper struggles are often the same: worthiness, visibility, and the fear of judgment. This is a space for connection, healing, and the power of storytelling. Let’s dive in.Vanessa Krchova Art Literary History & Criticism
