An Unconventional Mother

Season 16, Ep. 4

Today I'm joined by the most amazing human. Millie lives off grid with her little family, which she created using a family friend as a sperm donor. Her son has a disability but is in the best possible hands - you'll hear why. Millie is such a breath of fresh air on this topic and I hope you love her as much as I do.
