I am so grateful for that time in my life.  I'm a wife to the best guy and mama to two awesome kids. I love to talk.

Stephanie is a mom to many- mainly two tiny adorable humans but as you'll hear she also considers her pets- a dog, and 2 indoor pigs- her children as well. Stephanie shares about a hard time for her child and for her family. We discuss the importance of open communication with children and having honest dialogue. We also discuss the importance of therapy and doing what is best to help our kiddos and ourselves heal. Listen to the end when Stephanie flips the script and makes me answer HER ending question first. While this conversation touches on hard subjects, you'll see that as friends we can still have a good time too. I hope you enjoy listening in on this conversation and I hope that you hear us both when we say therapy is the best. Stephanie is: Watching- This is Us Reading- Are You There Vodka?
