This week, Kate starts with a quick personal update (but is still on mat leave) and is sharing a pre-recorded episode with Ashley Spivey, an incredible influencer and women's advocate Kate has followed for over a decade ever since her stint on Brad Womack's season of The Bachelor. They reminisce about the early days when Bachelor Nation Twitter was fun, how she's maintained an audience ever since the show, her experience nannying full-time, challenges of finding childcare, meeting their husbands at bars in NYC, etc. Then they venture into the inception of Spivey's Book Club, her current book recommendations, their favorite childhood books, and thoughts on Colleen Hoover, followed by a discussion about navigating pregnancy after loss, Ashley's advocacy with the Stillbirth Prevention Act, her perspective on motherhood, and so much more. Enjoy!
