106 | Postpartum pageants are not physiologic, the Ballerina Farms controversy

Women everywhere are talking about the Mrs World Pageant. This is the most attention this pageant has received in years all thanks to Ballerina Farms and her 8 Million followers. But is competing in a pageant at 12 days postpartum really truly empowering?

In this episode I discuss:

• The empowering vs irresponsible debate on glamorizing the early postpartum days.
• How the homestead community feels deceived by Ballerina Farms and how all Instagram homesteaders are also boss babes.
• Mom shaming does effect those who are confident and secure in their decisions and know they are doing their best.
• What is normal? Physiologies normal is different than American's normal.
