The Cheer Incorporated podcast production team had the pleasure of speaking with “The Twins’ Mom” Kristen in late October, 2022. Kristen’s sons are victims of so-called “cheerlebrity,” Jerry Harris.
In our first conversation with Kristen she recounted her and her son's story of standing up - even when that meant standing up alone. In this episode she shares advice for current survivors, as well as her opinion on where the cheerleading industry must go to right its systemic wrongs.
Kristen has generously offered her support to survivors and their loved ones. She can be reached on Twitter @_kristenerika_
