Ep. 189: Just days before her due date, Olivia Adriance joins us to share what it’s really like being pregnant as a content creator. We break down the pressure to stay productive even during pregnancy and how she’s navigating unsolicited advice with more intention than ever. Olivia also opens up about taking a two-month break from Instagram during her first trimester — a decision that helped protect her peace. It’s a conversation full of honesty, humor, and of course pregnancy cravings!
