Are cleaning, cooking, and total submission truly the path to godliness, or have we fallen so far off the societal cliff that women are simply exhausted? Learn more about your ad choices.

Trevor. I was moved by the discussion about compassion and young men. As an Australian mother of a young woman and man this story hits hard. I wanted to share a link to Rosie Battys work and life with tragedy and mental health. Her representation of grief and forgiveness is deeply important https://engagingwomen.com.au/stories/rosie-batty-ceo-luke-batty-foundation/
