   I want to be honest with you.

   Dear lovely listeners, This week’s episode feels a little different… and honestly, it’s something I went back and forth on sharing at all - but I truly believe in being open with you all and the power in sharing. When I made the decision to continue the podcast solo after Jackie stepped away, what mattered most to me was this community we’ve built together. Creating a space where women feel seen, heard, supported and not alone. That hasn’t changed - and it never will. I’m taking a break from the pod for now, but I’m already so excited to come back and continue growing this space with you all. Thank you for being here, always. Love, Gem x See omnystudio.com/listener (https://omnystudio.com/listener) for privacy information.

Protecting our kids from porn

Published 24 Mar 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] And I looked at some of these young men that were in the show and I thought, how is this happening? How is this message being spread? I know. And it's the social media, the smartphone, it's like – Their popular culture has never had a bigger influence on our kids than what it has today. So as parents, it's harder and harder for us to be the dominant influence in their lives because of the amount of time they spend on screens.
