S9 EP27: Struggle Running Through Life with Guest Erin Azar

Today's guest is Erin Azar, or you may adoringly know her as Mrs. Space Cadet. She calls herself a "Pro Struggle Runner...running through life, one struggle at a time." We love her, you love her, because she is just so darn relatable. Erin is a literal trailblazer who now has close to a million followers on TikTok.
