Good Moms Bad Choices

Girls Are Raised, Boys Are Loved Feat. Jessie Woo


Listen Later

This week, the Good Moms are joined by comedian, and host of "Jess A Couple Things" podcast, Jessie Woo for a layered conversation on family, culture, ambition, and accountability.

 

From growing up as the oldest daughter in a strict Haitian household to finding her voice in the entertainment industry. The three chat about everything from mother wounds and cultural silence to anime porn, and Jessie's "crush" on Morgan Freeman 👀. It’s honest, hilarious, and might be exactly what you or a friend may need to hear.

(04:10) Jessie shares the origins of her content career and how Haitian comedy got her noticed

(12:35) Moving to New York, losing everything, and lying her way into her first network gig

(19:00) Why saying “yes” when you’re not fully ready can change your life

(31:20) How mother-daughter relationships shape adult intimacy, boundaries, and the way we receive love

(36:55) A revealing brunch with Jessie’s mom and her man that turned into an unexpected emotional breakthrough, but revealed that there is still work to do...

(44:40) Why first-born daughters are often raised, and not "loved"

(51:10)sibling resentment

(58:00) Cultural expectations for Caribbean girls vs boys and why her upbringing made her resilient, but guarded

(1:06:45) Thoughts on validation, emotional gaslighting, and the trap of performative parenting

(1:13:10) Jessie on love, faith, titties, and why Morgan Freeman might secretly be fine

(1:20:00) Bad Choice of the Week: anime porn, laptops, and kids who know too much
