About this episode
Vee and Jill Helmer discuss motherhood, identity, and the challenges of watching children grow up.
In this episode of Vee the People, Vee sits down with Jill Helmer for a thoughtful and heartfelt conversation about motherhood, identity, and what it looks like to enter a new season of life. As a mom of three, Jill reflects on the experience of raising her kids and what it means to now watch them grow up and head out into the world. She shares the mix of pride, nostalgia, and uncertainty that comes with this phase — and how it’s shifted her perspective on both parenting and herself. Jill also talks about her time as a Penn State alum and how that chapter of her life helped shape who she is today. From there, the two cover everything from motherhood to politics and all the real-life moments in between. It’s an honest, reflective episode about raising kids, letting go, and figuring out what comes next — only on Vee the People.
