EP. 228 — Redefining Motherhood with Ashley James

Jameela welcomes radio & TV host Ashley James for an honest look at her shame-free motherhood experience, the full-blown criticisms she received as a single person and now as a mother, and the contrasting views in society around people who parent. Jameela & Ashley talk through the loneliness of parenting, the pressure of reclaiming the pre-baby body, and how there’s no shame in seeking pelvic healthcare. Ashley also shares how she handles debate with a data-driven feminist approach.
