Summary

As a woman, we're often told who to be and how to show up in the world. We sat down with actress, comedian, host and *ahem* Emmy Award Winning Journalist, Heather Brooker, to discuss the complexities of balancing a presence in the entertainment industry with being a mother. This year, Heather and her husband, have merged the two worlds together with their daughter in a family centric podcast titled, The Brooker Family Popcast. We hope you enjoy our conversation of motherhood, media and meeting our children where they're at. Also there's a special Snoop Dogg segment and we encourage everyone to please leave your fav song in the comments below! Listen to The Brooker Family Popcast on all streaming platforms!
