Desiree (she/her) is a lesbian preschool teacher living in Los Angeles. We talk about couples therapy, our cats, how complicated it can be when you're a queer couple planning a wedding, and words that we ALWAYS pronounce wrong because english is a ridiculous language!
Heads up: this episode has LOTS of laughs and a crazy-how-the-universe-works "how they met" story, but also a touch of religious trauma and discussion of internalized homophobia and unsupportive family members. Proceed with caution if those topics are potentially triggering for you!
