Buy Yourself Something Sexy

This week on Love in Common we talk about who we show the world vs who we really are. Whether it’s conforming to the role your day job requires of you, or finding the courage to speak your truth, we muse about the public and private persona. Plus Frank channels Edith Schaeffer for a little sermon about bibles and garter belts (not necessarily in that order). Take a listen, we are so glad you are here.
