For today’s DST Thursday, Aleen is joined by Sami Sage. To kick it off, they jump into DST Wins, which are sponsored by Heineken 0.0. Sami shares her win about getting through her recent ovary checkups and Aleen shares her win of being a mom for nearly a year (a true accomplishment). They then read a listener's DST Win about learning how to acknowledge your *growth*. Sami and Aleen talk through their own self-growth on this topic, which randomly then brings them to a convo about food cravings (spoiler: Jared is going to love these pickle takes). Finally, they read a Dear DST about asking for advice on how to handle body-shaming from your parents. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
