June 27, 2017 05:37 - 32 minutes - 59.6 MBA great conversation with Erin Kowalski from Bialy's Wellness Foundation! Sooo many people asked for her to be a guest and she was phenomenal.

May 09, 2017 04:32 - 49 minutes - 67.4 MB"It has nothing to do with the person that raised them. It has to do with the person handling them." As it got later into the night when Carolyn and I were to do our podcast, I wondered how tipsy she would be by the time we started. HA!
