Summary
We sat down with The Tea: The Talk author Alicia Crespin for an open and honest conversation about navigating those tricky—and often awkward—moments with our kids. From puberty to relationships to the curveball questions that leave us speechless, Alicia shares practical advice on approaching “the talk” with confidence. The Tea: The Talk is more than just a parenting guide—it’s a powerful collection of stories from over 30 women, spilling the tea on their pasts. By breaking the silence around stigmatized topics, Alicia shows how we can empower the next generation to grow up stronger, more informed, and more connected. Known for her straightforward, no-nonsense style, Alicia is on a mission to help us raise the best version of tomorrow’s adults.
