Hello hello!

Today, we speak to Jessie Stephens. Jessie is a best-selling author, podcast host and journalist. Her career began at Mamamia over a decade ago when she was first hired as an editorial assistant. You will know Jessie’s voice very well; she co-hosts Mamamia’s thrice-weekly podcast Mamamia Outloud.

In this conversation, Jessie shares the moment she met her husband: the early days of working together and how she felt about the age gap between them. She also speaks about her experience with depression, why she never takes a failure or a success home, and her wonderful, eye-opening journey to motherhood.
