798. The Power of Infrared Healing with Sunlighten Co-founder Connie Zack

*THIS EPISODE WAS ORIGINALLY BROADCAST ON MAY 14, 2020** A raw, unguarded conversation with Jamie Lynn Spears, about why she really left the business, how scary it was, and how watching her sister Britney's life influenced that decision. We get an emotional, step-by-step account of her daughter's terrifying accident and miracle recovery, and her new outlook on life thereafter. She opens up with a behind-the-scenes look at growing up as a Spears, especially as Britney's younger sister. Of course Zoey101 fans will be thrilled to hear her discuss the future of the show, but which roles did she walk away from (hint, hint, could she have been our favorite #Vampire?) Finally, she shares her excitement over her new Netflix show Sweet Magnolias. Become a member of the Better Together community through Patreon!
