About this episode

Last week’s convo between SJR and Laura Lentz was way too layered for just one episode—so here W.E. are, back with round two! First, SJR answers an advice question aimed at women veterans, followed by a discussion on friendship betrayal. Then, Laura dishes out the details of her family life, new church community, and the dreams she’s working toward. Press play, sis, if you’re ready to recognize that forgiveness is an opportunity to honor your resiliency!
