In this solo episode of Women in the Nude, I open up about the raw realities of motherhood in an uncertain world. Drawing from my experiences raising my five-year-old son, Hendricks, I explore the overwhelming rush of love mixed with underlying fear—wanting to "freeze" his innocence while preparing him for a polarized future filled with headlines, politics, and digital influences.

We dive into profound questions like: How do we protect our children's innocence without making them naive? How can we raise strong boys who become empathetic men, understanding consent, emotional expression, and respect for women as equals? At its core, this episode is about breaking generational cycles, modeling compassion, and shaping values that empower the next generation to navigate complexity with strength and humanity.

In this episode of Women in the Nude, I sit down with Rachel Siebold, CEO and founder of Allara, to talk about turning personal frustration into purpose. From navigating PCOS and hormone imbalance to building a virtual care platform for women, Rachel shares how her own diagnosis sparked a mission to change the system.

We get into the stigma around medication, the realities of fundraising as a female founder, and why empathy and data both matter in women’s health. At its core, this episode is about advocacy, ownership, and creating better options for women who are tired of not being heard.

This Valentine’s Day, Sasha Pieterse invites you to a special Women In The Nude “Lovestream” — an intimate, honest conversation about love in a heavy world.
