Update: 2025-11-20
Description
How do siblings who have drifted so far apart find their way back to each other? Especially when they have very different ideas about how their foundation fractured in the first place. In this session, Gwen and Carla share things about themselves that they've not shared before - will it be enough to bring them closer, and begin to heal their rift?
