Pursuing Real
Lauren & Cyndi
We're a mom and daughter whose life experiences have not only shaped who we are as individuals, but have also ushered us into a relationship as the very best of friends. Through candid dialogue and open forums within our family, we've soldiered together through periods of pure grief AND pure joy. Our mission is to share our experiences and perspective, so that we may foster an environment that encourages meaningful and difficult dialogue with loved ones centered around real life. Real loss. Real love. Real difficulty. This is 'Pursing Real', a podcast.
