Go Get Yourself a Therapist

Posted on October 5, 2020October 5, 2020 by The Basic Moms

It’s Okay, to Not be Okay

Posted on September 28, 2020May 29, 2021 by The Basic Moms

In the words of Taylor Swift, “why you gotta be so mean”? Being a 9 on the enneagram, watching all this unfold all over my…
