Farm life, house pigs, rescue donkeys, and fertility treatments in Barbados are just some of the topics the trio discusses. Sarah gracefully navigates the conversation about everything that brought her to her decisions.

Anita gets brave and takes a second family trip less than a month from her first family trip. Fingers crossed that her widow t-shirt keeps all meanies at bay! Mel guests on another podcast (click here to listen: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-happy-musicians-podcast/id1481777344?i=1000517838978), and then, the pair does possibly the most ridiculous Patreon shout out in their history together. Luckily, Peter Rukavina - widower, and all-around cool guy, steps in and keeps things grounded as he tells us the tales from the widower vault. Peter's e-book, Using Her Marbles, is available at  http://UsingHerMarbles.com
