In this inaugural episode, longtime friends and therapists Laura Walton and Bridget Tremblay introduce themselves and explore how their 20-year friendship began at a Lululemon group interview in 2005. They dive into the concept of transitional objects—from Bridget's childhood thumb-sucking and Laura's lack of soothing mechanisms to the mysterious stranger who helped them through a hellish layover in Tokyo.
The conversation takes a deeper turn as they share personal stories about childhood experiences that shaped their coping mechanisms: Bridget's early independence as a latchkey kid and Laura's moment of being called a "ham" that changed how she showed up in the world. They also explore the cosmic synchronicities that have followed their friendship, including powerful signs after the death of Laura's then-boyfriend that involved flickering lights, phantom phone calls, and electrical disturbances.
From bachelorette party omens on Catalina Island to gratitude for both healthy and unhealthy transitional objects, this episode sets the foundation for what promises to be an honest, vulnerable exploration of how we navigate life's transitions. Laura and Bridget prove that sometimes the best transitional object is a friend who witnesses your journey—and all the unexplainable moments along the way.
