#366 If my mom were alive the wedding would have been way more complicated


Listen Later

Dana’s mom suffered from chronic pain, which led to substance addiction. Because her mom was so sick, Dana is sharing why she “was way more scared to get married when her mom was alive because it would have been way more complicated”.

If you’re feeling sad and struggling while planning your wedding because someone you love has passed away, this episode is going to be so helpful to you. It’s a mix between a real wedding retrospective, a self help episode and a fun chat between two girlfriends. We go deep and we laugh a lot.
