CULTS: INTRO

Welcome back, Besties! Have you ever wondered what lies behind the facade, the moments that define us beyond the spotlight? It's a natural curiosity to wonder about the authentic stories that unfold in the quieter corners of our lives. Beyond the glamorous exterior that we often project to the world, there are those raw, unfiltered moments that truly define who we are – the struggles, triumphs, and personal revelations that shape us in profound ways. Today, Violetta welcomes Sasha Pieterse - American actress, singer, and model who gained significant recognition for her role as Alison DiLaurentis on the popular TV series "Pretty Little Liars." The duo dive into an intimate conversation that's all about embracing authenticity, overcoming challenges, and finding strength within ourselves. They offer a rare glimpse into the dynamics of fame and authenticity, the art of gracefully handling criticism, and insights into building trust and finding strength amidst motherhood. Let's celebrate vulnerability, growth, and the power of communication.
