Isabel Brown on Pregnancy, Gen Z, Faith, and Conservatism
In this episode, I had Isabel Brown (@theisabelbrown) on to discuss the cultural and political shifts shaping Gen Z, family, faith, pregnancy and motherhood. We discussed the differences between millennials and Gen Z and their attitudes towards traditionalism and conservatism. Isabel shared her personal experiences with activism, motherhood, and how faith guided her journey. We dove into the challenges of modern parenting, the loneliness epidemic, and why Gen Z is rejecting the narratives of previous generations. Enjoy!
