When Feminism Failed: One Woman's Journey Back to Faith and Family

This episode of Driving Home the Faith offers hope, clarity, and hard-won wisdom for anyone wrestling with modern cultural ideologies, faith, and the meaning of authentic freedom. In this thoughtful and deeply personal conversation, Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, founder of the Ruth Institute, reflects on her intellectual and spiritual journey—from Ivy League economics and libertarian ideology to Catholic faith, motherhood, and a renewed understanding of human nature. Dr. Morse shares how infertility, adoption, and lived experience challenged the promises of radical individualism and reshaped her views on freedom, feminism, and the role of the family in forming human trust and virtue. With honesty and insight, she explains why liberty without moral truth ultimately fails—and why love, dependence, and family are not weaknesses, but foundations of a healthy society.
