Bekah has one of the most open and instantaneously infectious warmth that makes it hard to not want to be her friend. In this conversation we get really real and really deep while keeping everything very light hearted. We chat about... Bekah’s weird reoccurring cheesy fingers childhood nightmare and what does it mean? Her current journey through reconstructing what spirituality and faith means to her thanks to religious trauma Advice we would give our younger selves Our current phase in life Our thoughts on the idea of “Stranger Danger” There is one mention about suicide so I’ll just give you this heads up, but with that... please meet Bekah.
