Description

<p>Leah Sargeant was a proud atheistic feminist who experienced a deep conversion to Christ. But she couldn&#39;t fully ditch the term &quot;feminism,&quot; and in today&#39;s episode she explains why. She also shares her struggles with fertility and policy solutions for stronger families, and we discuss whether gender roles are helpful. </p><p><br></p><p>*Leah&#39;s book*: https://amzn.to/4m2FMo5</p><p>Leah&#39;s X: https://x.com/LeahLibresco</p><p>Substack: https://www.otherfeminisms.com/</p><p><br></p><p>NEW: Check out our Merch store! https://shop.lilaroseshow.com/</p><p><br></p><p>Join our new Patreon community! https://patreon.com/lilaroseshow - We&#39;ll have BTS footage, ad-free episodes, and early access to our upcoming guests.</p><p><br></p><p>*Amazon links may earn commission</p><p><br></p><p>A big thanks to our partner, EWTN, the world’s leading Catholic network!
