Josie’s Girls

Lauren is the human equivalent of a warm hug with a splash of mischief! Some would call her—effortlessly charming, delightfully witty, and always ready to add a spark of humor to the room. Whether turning small talk into a comedy show or making everyone at the table feel like the guest of honor, she has a knack for creating unforgettable moments out of the simplest of things. Her elegance is matched only by her mischievous streak, proving that sophistication and a little playful chaos can coexist beautifully into one human being. People naturally gravitate to Lauren, not just for her humor and warmth, but because she makes "being appreciated" feel like an art form.

Hannah is Michael’s cousin by blood and friend by choice. She loves to read, play games, and sleep when her kids let her. She wears her heart on her sleeve and is always up for a warm hug. Harry Potter and Legend of Zelda  are her go to conversation starters, so approach with caution!
