Hey everyone, this week on the podcast, I welcome back JIts_BItch....aka... JB.... aka.... Toni. It's been a long time since we sat down to talk, but we picked up right where we left off and it got a little rough at certain points. Business as usual. We discuss her hiatus from social media, the chaos that is life, more trauma bonding, and wanting to help others.
