34. Maturing Into Motherhood & Teen Pregnancy

This week I interview Alex Noble about millennial motherhood, the experience of getting pregnant with her first child in high school, and her unadulterated account of the bodily changes that result. She opens up about breaking the news to her boyfriend's Muslim parents, her mom's priceless response, and coming to terms with reactions ranging from surprise to disappointment. We discuss learning how to co-parent after splitting from your partner, and the impact that motherhood has on your approach to re-entering the dating world. Finally, Alex reflects on grieving the loss of a partner, and her approach to guiding a child through the process of losing their parent.
