Awesome Show!
This podcast is amazing! Neil is a true professional and knows what he is doing. Can't wait to see where the success of this podcast goes.
Amazing
Was doing what we all should be doing: fostering a greater sense of empathy for those around us. We are so worried that we are broken, but examining the brokenness and beauty of others helps us to see the beauty with ourselves. They must listen for all humans
Fantastic Experience
Neil has such a way about interviewing that puts you at ease immediately. His questions were right on with what I had prepared for his show. He was empathetic and caring when I shared about my struggle with OCD. There was no judgement or awkwardness. Overall, it was a great experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to come back!
Insightful and Interesting
Other People's Shoes podcast comes with a unique understanding of what stepping into someone else's story for a while really means. It allows us to figure out why others' behave the way they do based on their beliefs, goals, and intentions. The reward for the viewer, of course, is a healthier and more balanced perspective, as well as a greater ability to resolve conflicts with others. Well done, Neil!
So much fun!
I had a great time. I rarely do interviews with a male host due to my target audience and who they listen to. This podcast was so much fun to record and was a welcomed change to my routine.
Amazing Experience!
I had such a great time chatting with Neil. He has an easy way about him that made me feel comfortable in my own shoes. It was fun, we laughed, & we both learned something new. I would have to say my experience on the Other People's Shoes Podcast ranks up with my top favorite guest experiences. Thank you Neil! You've got an incredible ministry. Keep doing what you do!
A Great Show
Other People’s Shoes is a place to grow our empathy. The host, Neil Matthews is talented when it comes to asking questions that provoke guests to think deeper and bring out the theme of the topic at hand. I was recently a guest on his show and thoroughly enjoyed the experience to chat in a relaxed and meaningful way.
Brave questions
Neil stepped out his comfort zone having me on his show. He asked the questions most folks don't. And because of that, we went deep in search of the heart of the matter, and the heart of God. Thanks Neil! You're doing great work.
A true thinktank of a show
This is a podcast that actually lives up to it's stated theme. Neil asks the right questions to get inside the guest's mind and actually help them share their perspective--and it helps that he brings on thoughtful, insightful people for more than just a plug or a podium. There's a reason it's lasted as long as it has, and you'll feel that if you give it a listen.
Your weekly dose of empathy
Neil has a casual and approachable rapport with his guests - he is a vulnerable and affable host that has fun while going beyond your typical interview/personal story questions. An under the radar education of life lesson. A must listen.

Love this show
I always get a fresh perspective on life when I listen to Other People's Shoes. It helps me see things from other people's view points and I understand where someone else is coming from. This show helps me be more compassionate with everyone I meet. We need this in the world today more than ever. I am so grateful for this show.
Money and Period talk... an open and honest conversation
I had a great time chatting with Neil! I appreciated Neil's transparency in that he wasn't totally comfortable talking about menstrual cycles which allowed for us to have an open and honest conversation about why this isn't just a woman's issue and how our partners can be more supportive. Neil was a great listener, asked thoughtful questions and his demeanor put me at ease instantly. Although his research may have hinted that I might not be a good fit for his show, his willingness to show up and be curious about who I am, what I do and what moments have left an imprint on me is to be commended. Thanks Neil!
Amazing show!
I am so glad I came across this show! I’ve taken so many actionable and practical nuggets of advice to implement. Love tuning in!
Real and Fun
I listened to Neil interview other guests before I became one, and I loved his style. He is the real deal and it's always fun. The whole shoe thing - what style shoe do you wear, or the size...and the game at the end...it's just plain fun. I've been on many podcasts but Neil's curiosity led us into some real unplanned discussion. I had a great time.

Have we been friends forever?
Neil is such a great host. Our convo was real and friendly and fun! I have been on other shows where I felt like I was just a number to the host, but Neil doesn't look at it that way. We had a good laugh at each other here and there and the conversation really flowed. I would be a guest again - anytime. I am also suggesting some of my closest clients to be on Neil's show because I know he will be real with them too. Thanks, Neil for sharing other people's stories, life and sometimes laughter.
Creative and powerful
To put ourselves in “Other people’s shoes” is a common term for gaining understanding. But I love how Neil literally talks about shoes. Seeing life from other people’s perspective is powerful. Adding in the discussion about their personal shoes takes it even deeper making it more real - creative and fun.
What a great experience!
Neil as a true professional. His ability to make you feel welcomed on the show really stands out. It was a great time connecting with him. His passion for people's stories is top notch.
