This week, Lara shares a very real recap of the past couple of weeks—from spring break comparison spirals and a meaningful trip with her daughter, to friendship accountability, letting go of someone from her past, and processing tragic loss in her community.

This episode is about motherhood, grief, emotional growth, and what it looks like to hold joy and heartbreak at the same time.

In this episode:

• spring break pressure and comparison
• friendship, insecurity, and accountability
• love, longing, and not sending the text
• a sweet mother-daughter trip to Biltmore
• a funny Banana Ball mix-up
• grief, parenting fears, and talking to kids about hard things
