S2 Ep135: My Mom Talked to Me About Sex, And It Made Me Rebel ft. Blair Imani


Listen Later

What does it mean to be ready for motherhood? How do love, faith, and our relationship with our maternal figures shape our parenting?

In this honest and grounded conversation, educator, author, and activist Blair Imani shares her perspective on family planning, pregnancy loss, and the role of sexual education in real life. She opens up about having conversations with her partner around abortion as part of sexual health, and how her conversion to Islam continues to guide her through questions of timing, family, and faith.

We also dive into Blair’s relationship with her mom, and how that connection influences her hopes for becoming a parent herself. It’s a conversation about the choices we face when planning for a baby, the loss and love that come with it, and the bigger role faith, values, and family play in planning our future.
