2 girls. 8 siblings each. 26 years of friendship. we go way back. however, it wasn’t until we reached our 20’s that we began divulging into our childhood: examining it’s effect on our internal worlds + our navigation of the world around us. we’ve found ourselves feeling “behind the 8 ball” more often than not. balancing responsibilities as the oldest of 8 while navigating young adulthood, has sparked both introspection + retrospection. thanks to open conversation, we’ve learned that the path to growth is made easier with a friend by your side. xo jayden rainer + micaela kostecka
