E306: Why Modern Women Hate Motherhood w/Leah Sargeant | Lila Rose Show

About this episode

Leah Sargeant discusses her journey from atheistic feminism to Christianity, her struggles with fertility, and the implications of gender roles on motherhood.

Leah Sargeant was a proud atheistic feminist who experienced a deep conversion to Christ. But she couldn't fully ditch the term "feminism," and in today's episode she explains why. She also shares her struggles with fertility and policy solutions for stronger families, and we discuss whether gender roles are helpful. *Leah's book*: https://amzn.to/4m2FMo5 Leah's X: https://x.com/LeahLibresco Substack: https://www.otherfeminisms.com/ NEW: Check out our Merch store! https://shop.lilaroseshow.com/ Join our new Patreon community! https://patreon.com/lilaroseshow - We'll have BTS footage, ad-free episodes, and early access to our upcoming guests. *Amazon links may earn commission A big thanks to our partner, EWTN, the world’s leading Catholic network!
