Really enjoyed another brilliant podcast from Aunt Nell.

The past and present are weaved together with reflections on what it means when we see ourselves. Loved the variety of contributors and the thoughtful tender way it’s presented.

This episode was a definite highlight. β›ˆοΈ ⚑️ β›ˆοΈ (IYKYK)

The Quilt - Ep 8: The Wave 🌊
