Feminism promised freedom, empowerment, and opportunity—but what has it really delivered for women? In this conversation, Tammy Peterson sits down with Andrea Mrozek, co-author of *I Do? Why Marriage Matters*, to explore how feminism has reshaped marriage, motherhood, and dating—and what's been lost along the way. Together they examine the decline of birth rates, the rise of loneliness, and the hidden costs of the revolution.
Andrea brings decades of research into family, child care, and fertility, offering a clear-eyed look at second wave feminism, women's empowerment, and the cultural changes that continue to affect relationships today. Tammy brings warmth, faith, and curiosity to a conversation that challenges us to reflect on what truly brings abundance, meaning, and love in family life.
If you've ever wondered why marriage is in decline, what the Bible says about women and family, or how feminism has shaped modern dating and motherhood, this episode will give you a perspective you won't hear anywhere else.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
