hi hello hey, and welcome to an extra-special episode of Rare with Flair!

We’re so very excited for this episode! While we love doing advocacy work since it’s the reason we started this podcast, we love any chance to just chat like friends. In this episode, we talk all about some of our very favorite things from foods to books. We had a blast making this and learning a bit more about each other, and we hope you get to know us a bit better.

Thanks for making our podcast your favorite podcast! (totally kidding, but if you like us, please give us a review on Apple podcasts. It’s not straightforward to promote a podcast, so any little bit helps!)

As always, don’t forget you can email us at hello@rarewithflair.com. We love email and do our best to respond to every single one!
