[@sarahpenta3593]

I love the content but you go too fast and make me anxious. Slow down a little please. A calmer tone goes a long way. Cathy goes at a nice even, calm speed.

[@LevelUpRN]

Thanks for the feedback. -Meris

[@glammagirl4933]

At times she does speak at a fast pace, BUTTTTTTT you can slow down here videos in playback setting to .75 or lower (slower). hope that helps

[@reginavicenteno8424]

[@Massytravelaroundtheworld]

I like this videos but they speak too 💨 fastttttt speak less fast 💨 she is talking as if she was reading an article in a hurry, so it is not explained

[@LevelUpRN]

Thanks for the feedback. -Meris
