🧩 Season Theme: Who’s There? 🚪
This season is all about the knock.
The moment you reach out.
The question we all ask at some point: Is anyone really there on the other side?
👣 Guest Introduction:
This week, I’m joined by Shane McKenna, the creator of LOQUI LISTENING a peer-to-peer listening app built around something that feels surprisingly rare these days: someone who will simply listen.
The episode title Hello… was inspired (slightly embarrassing confession included) by the song Hello by Adele. There’s a line in that song that’s always stuck with me:
“When I call, you never seem to be home.”
That lyric feels like the heartbeat of this season. So many of us have called. Knocked. Reached out. And felt like no one answered.
So the question becomes what do we do in those moments? And just as important… who’s there when we need someone right now?
Shane believes no one should have to face those moments alone.
💡 Episode Highlights:
Have we lost the art of actually listening and really talking?
Why LOQUI LISTENING focuses on presence, not advice or fixing
How peer-to-peer listening can meet people exactly where they are
Why availability matters: someone there 24/7, no matter the emotion
The surprising power of trust (and yes… even panda Dunk shoes 🐼👟)
🧠 What Is LOQUI LISTENING?
LOQUI LISTENING connects people with real humans who are willing to listen no therapy labels, no counseling language, no pressure to “solve” anything.
It’s about interaction, empathy, and being present in the moment whether you’re overwhelmed, joyful, anxious, or just need to say something out loud.
Pricing discussed in the episode:
$11 for 30 minutes
$19 for 60 minutes
(Note: one minute is deducted for each voice note or text message sent)
Even the name LOQUI comes from Latin loqui, meaning to talk or to speak.
In a world that’s constantly talking, Shane is asking a better question: Who’s actually listening?
