Pretty Much Done

Kaitlin Reagan has an incredible story. She came on the podcast to share her story losing her boyfriend of 9 years, Francesco, to cancer when they were only 24 years old. Kaitlin shares what the year has been like since, who has helped her, her social media break, and what you can do to help someone grieving. She tells me about the signs she has gotten from Francesco since he's passed, and if she believes in soulmates or whether everything happens for a reason after everything she's endured.

On today's episode I am joined by Humanistic Astrologer Diana Guerci for the first 20 minutes of the episode where she explains to us what a Saturn Return is, how to know if you're in or out of it, and she briefly reads my chart.
