Hi! Welcome back to the Your Number One Fan podcast, this is episode two with guest Lynne Ricketts. Lynne is not only a long time friend, she is a medical tech at an OBGYN office turned stay at home mom, mother to two beautiful girls, an advocate for her oldest daughter, a wife, and above all, herself.

"Hi! My name is lynne ricketts, but my favorite name of all is mom! I am a mother of two beautiful daughters ages 5 & 2. Besides a few part time jobs, I mostly stay at home with my girls. They teach me everyday to be a better human and lead with kindness. My oldest daughter is autistic and nonverbal so autism acceptance has been a huge driving factor in my life. I am still learning daily to navigate the world and life as a mother."



In this episode we get into how motherhood turns your world around, the improvements the US healthcare system can make for supporting mothers, and autism acceptance.
