    Value, Babies & Double Standards: Let’s Really Talk About It

    On this episode of The Latest with Loren LoRosa, Loren is recording straight from Miami before boarding the Fem It Forward cruise — and the vibes are high… until the conversation turns spicy. After Cam Newton’s viral comments about women’s “value” decreasing with children, Loren dives deep into the double standards surrounding single mothers, dating, and how society measures a woman’s worth.

She challenges the narrative, adds nuance, and reminds us that value isn’t something that disappears because life happens.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BreakfastClubPower1051FMSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
