What does it take to juggle the demands of being a mother in the entertainment industry while dealing with postpartum anxiety? Rachel Platten, singer-songwriter of the hit single, “Fight Song” joins us to share her perspective.

Her note to her fans on Spotify says it best, “Emotions are just waves, and I am the entire ocean.”

In our Season 3 kickoff episode, Rachel gives us the behind-the-scenes inspiration behind her touching song, “Girls” and unravels her personal experiences as a mom, including a moment where her daughter reacted emotionally to her live performance.

Together, we uncover profound lessons on trust, embracing disappointment, and the significance of female support in healing. Rachel's stories are a mirror to the challenges each one of us faces and the resilience we find within ourselves. Join us for this conversation, filled with real talk, important lessons and big laughs.

Listen to the end of the episode to hear a snippet from “Girls.” Warning, it cuts deeeeeep in the most stunning way!
