The natural, Biblical progression for a woman's life is to go from Maiden to Mother to Matriarch.

Each of these are seasons, and they're glorious in the way God guides us through them.

But...our culture HATES that last step.

Nobody is aspiring to grandmotherhood. The idea seems to be to go BACK to maiden after motherhood.

In this episode, Jeremy and April break down Michelle Obama's recent comments, the destructive nature of "therapy culture", and how it's impacting the way young women are interacting with religion.
