I Guess We're Grown-Ups Now
-
- Hosted by Kari Halsted and Brook Shelley
A podcast about being the kind of grown-ups we want to be. The answers are better than the questions.
Kari talks about the benefits of speaking out, and also the benefits of shutting up. And about potential future topics for I Guess We’re Grown-Ups Now.
