Are moms being pressured to ignore their instincts? In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich sits down with Caley Jones and Andrea Haskins from Radical Moms Union to explore the cultural forces that make motherhood harder than it needs to be. From the deceptive marketing of formula companies to the societal push for early separation between mothers and babies, they unpack how corporate interests and outdated norms often override a mother’s natural wisdom.

Caley and Andrea share their personal journeys of breaking free from these pressures—choosing home birth, extended breastfeeding, and questioning the mainstream path. They reveal how the messaging around motherhood has been shaped by industries that profit from insecurity, exhaustion, and separation. This conversation is an invitation for moms to reclaim their confidence, trust their instincts, and rethink what truly matters in raising their children.
