Rio’s Rainbow: Niki Ball and Aaron Ball (Part 1)

On this three part episode we are incredibly honored to be joined by Rio's mom Niki Ball, and Rio's stepdad Aaron Ball. You will get to know more about Rio, their family and hometown, and their incredible organization, Rio’s Rainbow during this conversation. We also wanted to give a content warning as there will be discussions surrounding suicide and bullying. We want to make sure that you know beforehand and to take breaks if needed. Your mental health and well being matter. Always remember, bald and balding people are beautiful and badass!
