Find the topics we covered, the links to the things we talked about, and more

Brittany shares everything from her childhood and career journey to what keeps her up at night as a parent to three kids...and how she and her husband should probably go on a few more dates.
Every week on the pod, I bake for our guests if they come to the closet IRL. For Brittany, I baked PB&J Bars.
