The Sister Project

Welcome to Cozy Conversations with The Sister Project® — the cozy corner of the internet created by real-life, Midwestern sisters Lauren and Michelle. Enjoy intriguing, inspiring, funny, sometimes tear-inducing conversations you can only have with your sister.

Lauren is a longtime yoga teacher, former Chicago traffic reporter (eight months in her 20s, crime beat dreams), lover of random facts, and a 43-year-old mom to a sweet toddler. She believes human connection is mandatory, savors simple pleasures, lives by a daily mantra, and survives on three shots of espresso.

Michelle is a mom shepherding her twins into adulthood, the lead singer of a cover band, and a reformed rusher. After caring for her mom during her journey with FTD while raising young kids, she now seeks slowness, joy in long walks, buying books instead of clothes, and writing letters.

Together, they share honest conversations about cozy living, motherhood, mindfulness, and slowing down. New episodes every Thursday.
