6. Lucinda Gibbons - Lake House
My next guest, Lucinda Gibbons (she/her) recently launched Lake House - A place where future, current, and in-progress families can come together. We chat all about her background which led her to launching this community space. Lucinda and I met in Boston several years ago at Brass (check out podcast #5 to learn about Brass) and have stayed in touch - she recorded this episode from her home with her husband, adorable tiny human (Happy 1st Birthday 11/26), and curious dog Watson!
We go deep on a few topics but some of our highlights revolve around the Inclusion Terms Glossary, inspiration for why Lucinda is so passionate to bring a community of inclusion where all are welcome regarding families and being a loving parent. In Lucinda's words, "who you are has no bearing on whether you can be a loving parent." She offers a variety of workshops and resources for families.

Please welcome my latest guests: Katie Demo, co-founder and CEO, and Genevieve Rudin, Chief Creative Officer of Brass Clothing!
Brass is a female apparel company founded by females for females. The small and mighty team focuses on helping women feel good every day in their clothes. The clothes are effortless, low maintenance, and can be worn for any occasion from the now ever present zoom meetings to headshots and weddings.
