Kenna Valdez is joining me on the podcast today! Kenna is the creator behind the account @thefliphubb on Instagram. She is your resource for all things DIY, home flips, and furniture flips. So many cool things that she is doing over there including her new home that they had flipped, a house in the woods that is just too cute!

Kenna is the mom of three. In this episode, we start the conversation talking about her road to motherhood. She has a severe case of endometreosis and knew that becoming a mom would be challenging. She did end up having two children biologically and then they fostered and adopted their third child. We talk about that a lot in this episode.
