Trad Wife or Boss Babe: Why Modern Labels Leave Women Lost | Tracey Martin

Content note: this episode discusses domestic abuse. If you need support in the US, the National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233. Outside the US, findahelpline.com lists services by country. The advice for women arrives as a label. Trad wife, boss babe, soft girl era. Pick one and build a life around it. Tracey Martin says the labels are what leave women lost, because a woman who does not fit one starts to believe something is wrong with her. I asked her what the trad wife movement gets wrong about resilience, why so many women lack the confidence to make decisions for their own families, and what she tells women in their fifties who are exhausted from trying to do it all. Tracey is a transformational life coach who has spent more than 30 years working with families.
