Hairspray & At-Home Births with Ricki Lake

The people who say, “don’t meet your heroes” probably never met this week’s guest—I got to have a Slumber Party with my Teen Idol and now good friend, Ricki Lake. We talk about how Ricki met and learned from her own heroes, why she continues to be my idol, and the documentaries that Ricki is working on now to empower people to make more informed choices about birth, their bodies, and more. Not to mention how to age gracefully—spoiler alert, it has to do with not giving a f**k what other people think!
