American Women Quietly Defying the Nation's Birth Dearth, with Professor Catherine Pakaluk

In the year 2019, Professor Catherine Pakaluk traveled to ten American regions and talked with women who were raising (or had raised) five or more children, to understand who they are and why they do what they do. In this episode, we talk about these stories. We talk about the normality of being mothers. We talk about the hardships of living as unencumbered selves. Once again, an episode that is worth your time!
