Hey everybody, welcome back to We Can Do Hard Things. Okay, I'm really excited about today because

But we should also laugh. So today, we're restoring some balance by revisiting our most embarrassing stories.

I have to tell you that this episode is an episode that I think made the most people the most joyful.

talks about all of the horrible things she
