Summary

This week, Jodie and Celia talk about the idea of the “nuclear family” – and decide it’s kind of B.S. They discuss the guilt that comes up for single moms who don’t have cookie-cutter families, and the ways in which they’ve created chosen families that create a wider, more diverse network of support than the traditional family structure. And somehow, all roads lead to Celia’s butt.
