Summary

"For two years, I have been sad. Not all the time. But it got pretty bad and pretty dark and pretty scary for a long time. And over these past few weeks, I’ve seen the light. And I feel like I get to be the light. And it’s been really fun to genuinely be enjoying my life."

If you follow me on Instagram (I'm @aliontherun1), I'm sure you're sick of my 40th birthday posts. But I had so much fun that this warranted an audio version of the weekend. So we brought in the big guns: Cousin Jackie, here to guest host this week's episode! Best spring ever? Best spring ever.
