The duality of women on full display this week I tap into many emotions ranging from pure rage at the guy at a gas station to tender feelings about psilocybin journeys and motherhood. I'm answering a few questions and offering my perspectives to (hopefully) offer a little companionship and humor through the turmoils of LIFE! Take it, accept it, spin it into gold and for the love of God let's work on being a little bit kinder, and a little bit more normal to each other. Happy 4th of July this wee...
