“I don’t believe in rules.” Rebecca Woolf is a rule-breaker:  she doesn't believe in following society's cookie-cutter definitions of motherhood. In this unapologetic episode, she takes us on a journey through her life as a mother who fully embraces her sexuality and autonomy. Just like we say at the beginning of each episode, Rebecca has not only broken the rules in her own life, but also found her path to being freer, happier, sexier, and more self-expressed.Rebecca's path to this point is unconventional, and she's here to share every raw, honest, and sexy detail. With an award-winning personal blog, "Girl's Gone Child," her Substack “The Braid,” the column "Sex and the Single Mom" on Romper.com, and her memoir "All of This," Rebecca has shattered the rules and redefined what it means to be a single mom.In this episode, Erin and Rebecca dive headfirst into the intricate world of motherhood, sexuality, and self-expression. Together, they unpack:Why it feels scandalous to be a mom writing about sex in our culture and what we can do to challenge those beliefsWhat it means when someone tells you you're "more than just a mom" and how it robs us of thinking of moms as multifaceted humans.Navigating parenting as a single mom: being both mom and dad, and the complexities of bringing new partners into one’s lifeWhy blended families shouldn't always be the goal - there are other options beyond falling back into conventional relationshipsThe liberating power of creating a shame-free homeOUR GUEST: Rebecca Woolf, a personal essayist since her teens, is renowned for her award-winning blog, "Girl’s Gone Child," and essays featured in Refinery29, LitHub, Entertainment Weekly, Huffington Post, and more.
