Pop Culture Hour: Kylie Kelce on Postpartum, Ms. Rachel Welcomes her 2nd Baby and more
In this episode of Do You Want the Truth? Pop Culture Hour, Zara and Sam dive into Kylie Kelce’s refreshingly honest postpartum podcast episode—and why it should be required listening for anyone interacting with a new parent. We break down some of the most frustrating pieces of advice new moms get (looking at you, “sleep when the baby sleeps”), and reflect on how celebrity culture, hustle culture, and social media have shaped the unrealistic expectations around postpartum recovery.
From night nurses and nannies to bonding delays and breastfeeding struggles, this episode is full of candid conversation around the parts of new parenthood that often get glossed over or left out completely. We also touch on homeschooling trends, daycare guilt, and how different privilege can show up in parenting choices. Plus, a little Miss Rachel update and a preview of our upcoming episode with Power Pause author Neha Ruch!
