Summary

On this week’s episode I sit down with a Georgia peach turned Chicagoan, the lovely Blake Gifford! Blake is an attorney and a full-time content creator, but most importantly…she’s a dog mom! So, grab a snack and come chill with us as we chat about our pet peeves, how political views coincide with social views, how to navigate feeling like you’re missing out on dating life while in a relationship, and how to deal with people who don’t place as much value in the things that you really care about. Oh, and be sure to keep an eye out for Blake’s upcoming Amazon Drop collection launching this fall!
