Lillie KlebLove it!I love the style of her podcasts and how easy they are to follow along. I love the episode with Peter Rosenberg and her explaining how she became successful and the hard work that goes into making a career for yourself.

jdidjeifjfiAmazing listenThis podcast is engaging, though provoking, and empowering. Dabielle Robay brings a mix of intellect, empathy, and relatability to her interviews. When listening to her engage with her guests I feel as if they are having a real and deep conversation that doesn’t feel forced in any way. She helps the listener to reflect on topics about personal growth, mental health, career advice, relationships, pop culture and so much more. She really focuses on embracing being “pretty smart” in every aspect of one’s life. The lessons and advice she brings are done in a enjoyable way making it resígnate with me so much more. Overall this podcast is worth your time if you are looking for smart, honesty, funny and empowering content.

OGM!!!PRETTYSMART REVIEWI’ve loved Danielle ever since she first popped up on my tik tok! Her videos always put a smile on my face because she’s only always authentic, but always unapologetically herself, which is very inspiring. The same qualities she hold in her tik toks carry over into this podcast and it’s just as good. This podcast has the perfect mix of real talk, inspiring stories, and topics that actually make you think after listening. Definitely listen if you want to feel like you having a deep convo with one of the coolest people you know!

With her insightful questions, host Danielle Robay keeps the audience interested and gives them the impression that they are having an intimate chat with friends. Episodes cover topics such as professional guidance, personal development, and the human side of ambition, so it's not just superficial small talk.

SydjarolEmpoweringPretty Smart is a podcast that will leave you feeling inspired and sparks very meaningful conversations. Journalist Danielle Robay hosts this podcast with all different background guests who have insightful perspectives, bold ideas and unique stories to tell. What is so unique and amazing about these podcasts is the different speakers Robay features on each episode.

Jen CottoInsightful conversations that often make you look withinDanielle asks the questions you wish you could ask the experts. The topics are insightful and really make you stop and think. As I listened to the Impostor Syndrome episode, I realized how deeply rooted this is for me. The conversation made me feel seen and made me realize I have a lot of work to do in this area. I was also left with additional questions. That’s how you know you’ve found a GREAT podcast, you’re left want big more.

molly JHAlways a great listenBut especially obsessed with the recent episode with Sarah Spain about women in sports… and not just playing, in all facets! 🖤
-
a good girlllHypocritical, at bestI was so disheartened that, while listening to an episode on “heart-centered living”, heard two women giggle about our current world and how critical “choice” is. Whaaa? We all know what that refers to, and I just can’t listen to women talk about this.
-
mckinleytOne of my absolute favorite listens!PRETTYSMART is a perfect listen for creative, ambitious women looking to learn and find inspiration. The conversations always feel so authentic, so empathetic — Danielle is a wonderful interviewer. Always excited to see a new episode is out!

Karitzaa1ep was ALL IT TOOKI don’t normally write reviews for podcasts because there are so FEW that truly provide quality content. After listening to one episode of PRETTYSMART, I came to write this review. Amazing topics, great guests, and articulated perfectly. I’ve been searching for exactly this and I’m so RELIEVED I FOUND IT. THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS SHOW TOGETHER!!

thompsonca3Love the show! Want the reads!Great show! I learn something new you each episode! Danielle, if you hear me 🗣️the guests always reference such great books that changed their lives! I often find myself trying to go back through the episode after listening to find the books so I can go out and get them. Would love to see the books your guests reference in the notes. Xoxox

pnwforlifeValueJust found this podcast and it’s brought so much value to my life. Danielle is amazing as an interviewer.
-
PSantoroIt’s Pretty Smart to question everythingDanielle is more than a question-asker. She’s a personable, relatable LISTENER . She’s not afraid to admit she’s striving to be a better person, admit her perceived short-comings (I.E. saying no more often) while encouraging her listeners to look inside themselves and improve along with her. Now she’s breaking silence on egg freezing. She’s outspoken without being preachy. I root for her and she’s right on a lot of things, I.e. “today is a great day to have a great day!”
-
Lisa PavicIntrigued and inspiredDanielle explores topics that mean something to me and she keeps it entertaining. Her angle of “pretty _____” certainly connects to my evolving experiences as an educator, mom, wife, athlete, etc. Always feel like her show topics are great conversation starters with friends and colleagues and it’s an easy listen for my long walks.
-
Amc928Always inspiringDiscovered Danielle after she was a guest on Financial Feminist, and this has rapidly become one of my indispensable weekly listens. Her conversational style and choice of guests is unique, I always find myself learning something new!

emmalynnleeezoBest podcast ever!I’ve learned so much from this podcast. I highly recommend the listen 💜

Clabbergirl??Women in leadershipI’ve been enjoying the topics that address women in leadership. Can I offer that women in military leadership are often overlooked. Women in the military offer a unique perspective on leadership. We have similar challenges and some specialized ones. We also have a strong sense of purpose that is not just “break things and kill people” as is often myopically attributed to military leaders. I would love to hear military leaders represented and given the chance to share lessons learned. I’ll leave you with Sen Tammy Duckworth and Lt Gen (ret) Michelle D Johnson as examples and interesting case studies. Thanks for the podcast! It’s an uplifting way to spend an hour!

ColorfulSanchezPretty InspiringDanielle is so charming. The way she is able to connect and allow sincere conversations with her guest is refreshing. Have learned so much and have felt inspired. Love all the book recommendations.

prettysuccessfulDanielle is inspirational .. brightens my day .I have been waiting for this type of series to help me with work relationships and friend relationships. Topics like likeability, equal pay , fair play and how to navigate work and life and peoole. I feel seen and heard and I now know that all women feel the same anxts but never discuss it. I took what I learned and helped a friend negotiate her new job salary and get everything she wanted. Pay it forward with danielle robay. Thanks for the great tools Danielle. Love listening to you.
-

arawlinsA Go-To PodcastOne of my favorite podcasts to go when I need inspiration!! I love who she interviews, I love her method/questions. Thankful to have found it!!
-
kg07So Refreshing and ThoughtfulDanielle is a gem of an interviewer. She is prepared with clear and poignant questions, but ones that stem from her genuine desire to know the guest and tell a story for listeners. Each episode I am left feeling content and open-minded and intellectually intrigued. Danielle inspires me as a listener to be more like her in my interactions with strangers and friends. In 50 minutes, Danielle is able to tell a story that flows and ultimately captures the full essence of a person with all of their layers. She has a way of making the guest feel truly seen I think while also sharing her own curiosity and bits of her own self along the way.

marlem15Perfect conversations to kickoff 2022I discovered this podcast right at the beginning of the year and it’s been my go-to the past few weeks. The guests have so much wisdom to share and Danielle does a great job of asking insightful questions to get the best answers possible. Add to your podcast rotation to have a brighter 2022!

TeutschieLove her!I first heard Danielle on Katie Austin’s podcast and found her to have such a refreshing perspective and attitude towards life. Speaks from the heart and has thoughts that are true to her, not what she thinks she should say. I tend to find many podcasters struggle with doing so - love her interviews! Thanks Danielle.
