Season 2 of She Comes With Baggage is officially here. The season is going to look a little different as I, Kirstie Pike, am opening up the mic to friends and creatives who inspire me.

My hope is that the conversations inspire more compassion for one another and for ourselves. Thank you for being a part of this journey...so get cozy, stay curious, and let's get into it!
