Ep 935 | Ballerina Farm, 'Breast Is Best' & Biblical Womanhood

Released January 17, 2024 by Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

 

Today we're talking about the newest controversy surrounding Ballerina Farm, or Hannah Neeleman, an influencer who sparked debate after posting about preparing for the Mrs. World pageant 12 days post-partum. We discuss whether this type of content is harmful to women and how we should see ourselves in comparison to what we see on social media. Then, what is the "Fed Is Best" movement, and what propaganda are we seeing among those who argue formula is just as good for babies as breast milk? We examine this and reveal the truth about breast milk. We also take a look at a Babylon Bee joke that has even fellow conservatives up in arms and why we all need to learn to take a joke again.
