I Wanna Be Like You

Clearing the Air: Letting Go of Toxicity as We Welcome 2025
About this podcast
Imagine being 19 years old and finding out you're pregnant. That's exactly what happened to me. As a single mother, I raised my daughter alone for 7 years. It was just the two of us against the world until my husband came into our lives. Our relationship is truly special and unique, like a combination of the TV show Gilmore Girls and the movie Romy and Michelle. We share a bond filled with love and humor that's unbreakable.
Welcome to our podcast where we'll take you on a journey of how our lives have changed together, how we navigate growing together and separately, and how I'm currently surviving her teenage years. Trust me, I'm not your typical parent and I take pride in that. So, buckle up and join us as we share our story with you.
Piper, when I grow up, I Wanna Be Like You.
