TradWife Summer, Influencer Myths & Modern Motherhood with Jo Piazza
Description
In this fun episode, Tara sits down with bestselling author, journalist and podcaster Jo Piazza to unpack the rise of the “TradWife” trend and what it reveals about womanhood, motherhood, and media in 2025. Jo shares highlights from her new book, Everyone Is Lying to You, which dives deep into the curated illusions of influencer culture and the pressure it places on modern moms. Together, they explore how over-parenting, performative authenticity, and the fine line between privacy and public life are shaping today’s parenting experience.
The conversation also takes a refreshing turn toward the importance of rest and reclaiming the right to “do nothing” as a form of radical self-care. Jo and Tara discuss how empowerment doesn’t have to mean rejecting traditional roles—it’s about choice and agency. Whether you’re wrestling with the expectations of social media or simply trying to find a moment of peace in your day, this episode is a reminder that the most powerful thing a mom can be is real.
