What started as a simple idea while working in a pool shop has grown into a powerful community resource, helping women borrow outfits, save money, and reduce waste. There’s even a toy library, so your little ones can enjoy something new without the cost or environmental impact. This is a heartfelt and hope-fi…","meta_description":"Welcome back to Love Patty This week we’re joined by the incredible Tara; mum of three, co-founder of Soul Rising Collective women’s retreats, and the wom…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":5046,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/love-patty-podcast-genuine-conversations-on-fertility-family-feminism-and-life-as-a-modern-female-7041416/episodes/59-tara-cmv-pregnancy-from-survival-to-soul-rising-tara-s-story-of-motherhood-healing-and-purpose/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/love-patty-podcast-genuine-conversations-on-fertility-family-feminism-and-life-as-a-modern-female-7041416/59-tara-cmv-pregnancy-from-survival-to-soul-rising-tara-s-story-of-motherhood-healing-and-purpose.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
