Show notes

A two-week visit became fourteen months. Our storyteller, Spare Key in Spokane, walks us through every stage: the polite phase, the casserole phase, and the night she finally changed the locks.

We talk boundaries, the guilt that comes with them, and how to say no to someone who rocked your baby to sleep.

She rearranged my spice rack. That was the night I knew.
