S1 E2: We Wrapped the Mattress in Plastic

This week on Later in Life, we attempt to solve a mattress crisis caused by chronic illness, detergent allergies, a crumbling 15-year-old bed, and what can only be described as lesbian survival mode.What starts as a simple Marketplace inquiry quickly turns into U-Hauls, plastic-wrapped mattresses, emergency cleaning missions, asthma attacks, and an unexpectedly emotional conversation about patience, safety, and what it feels like to finally be chosen in a relationship.Also… we may or may not be sleeping on what looks like a serial killer mattress.Follow our socialsJackie FaberTori Nancelater in life podcast, relationship podcast, lesbian podcast, queer relationship, friendship to lovers, emotional intimacy, healing podcast, lifestyle podcast, mattress story, chronic illness journey, nervous system healing, healthy relationships, queer love story, online friends to lovers, women loving women, relationship dynamics, authentic relationships, couple podcast, late bloomer lesbian, emotional safety
