My name is Mary Parham. I am a country girl who moved to the city! I’m one of 10 children: 7 half-siblings who are older, 1 full sister and an adopted brother who are both younger. I’ve lived in 16 cities across 6 states. Yes! I love adventure. My husband and I met in high school, dated in college, married at 20, raised two amazing sons, and enjoyed a good life until he passed in 2022 at age 49. I’ve been awarded several memorable moments, ringing the closing NASDAQ bell, becoming a surrogate, as well as changing my name to Lolli (to mention a few). However, starting this podcast to create a platform for open discussion about “life” may very well prove to be the greatest. Thankful to be chosen for the journey and that you’re joining us!
