I love Kirsten’s honesty and vulnerability about her motherhood journey, and we get into all of it: from what she wishes she heard after her two miscarriages, to navigating feelings of guilt in motherhood, deciding to get a divorce during the pandemic, and finding freedom and control through fitness.
