How to Keep the Love (and the Kids) Alive! | Karisa Bruin, comedy writer, director, actor

What starts as a relaxed tête-à-tête between old friends reminiscing about theater conservatory and miniature boobs evolves into a super honest conversation about the effects of our own mother’s parenting styles, pro tips from couple’s therapy, and what we’d perhaps do differently as 'creative moms' if we got another shot at caring for newborns.
