  • Life-changing!

    Authentic, wise, funny and heartbreaking. Listening to these women makes me feel like I’m not alone. It’s like having best friends who don’t judge and always give the best advice ( whilst also sharing their own vulnerabilities which is not always the case with friends in real life ;)Thank you Salima and Jennie! 🙏🙌♥️
