Description

In this season 2 finale, Lauren takes you to Twinsburg, Ohio — home of the largest twins festival in the world. With over 2,500 twins in attendance for its 50th anniversary, Twins Days Fest is a celebration of connection, individuality, and the unique dynamics only twins (and twin parents) truly understand.

From laugh-out-loud twin telepathy myths to deeply moving personal stories, Lauren chats with identical, fraternal, boy/girl twins, and even a pair navigating a gender transition — uncovering what they love about being twins, what they wish others knew, and the advice they have for parents raising multiples.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

  • The wildest (and weirdest) questions twins get from strangers.
  • Birth stories told from the twins’ own perspective — including one you’ll never forget.
  • Whether birth order really matters… and why some parents keep it a secret.
  • Heartfelt debates on school separation: when it helps, when it hurts, and why it sticks with twins for life.
  • The heavy weight of constant comparisons — and how gender plays into it.
  • Boy/girl twin dynamics vs. identical twin bonds.
  • A powerful conversation with twins navigating a gender transition together.
  • Dating as a twin: why your relationship with your twin sibling is a non-negotiable.
  • The top advice seasoned twins wish parents of multiples would follow.


Why You’ll Love It:

This episode is equal parts hilarious, emotional, and eye-opening — whether you’re raising twins, are a twin yourself, or just love people-watching at big family-style events. Lauren wraps Season 2 with a full-circle moment, starting the season with her own twin birth story and ending surrounded by a sea of twins who feel like extended family.
