Summary

“I thought I was a feminist before. You can’t tell me sh*t about women now. We bring whole entire lives into this world” my guest Julee Wilson on the experience of childbirth. 

Join Julee, Global Beauty Director of Essence, and I on this leftover’s edition of Naked Beauty as we talk about her experience of being a Mother. It’s something I feel we don’t talk about enough so I had so many questions and Julee answered them all. We talk:

  • Going from life as an athlete to being a Mom. 
  • Julee’s experience with first trimester morning sickness, the energy she gained in the second trimester and what it’s like to grow a human being inside of you. 
  • A cup size increase can be expected but also, your feet may swell (who knew?)
  • Her husband being in the room during labor, the ‘husband stitch’, lactating & how she makes time for herself as a busy working Mom
