Define the Narrative
The number of women who have chosen to create their own family grew exponentially during the global pandemic of 2020. Ann Argo, an educator and only parent to a nine year old boy, has created a podcast to support the contemporary needs of this tribe of women as they live in their definition of family, an uncharted one for many. Each episode centers around a topic relevant to the mental, emotional, and physical topics unique to this community of women. The Define the Narrative podcast is a grounding place for women who want to learn, grow, and thrive in their definition of family.
