Welcome back to the Laundry Room, I’m so glad you’re here. In this episode, I chat with my old work-twin, Christine. She opens up about advocating for her child as they explore their identity, getting to know her own inner child, and we talk about the importance of emotional connection through “hearts not parts”. Also, she got me thinking I might need to freshen up my old modeling portfolio, honey. Words of affirmation are my love language and the Pisces in her delivered them to the Libra in me.

Welcome back to the Laundry Room! In this episode, I'm chatting with an old college friend, Nikky. We talk about what it's like to live with a neurodivergent kiddo, while also learning to manage our own symptoms....in the middle of a panorama/pandemonium/panna cotta. And we got a little bit tipsy, my bad.
