On this episode of Financially Fierce, Jess sits down with Betsy Westcott to unpack the real cost of having kids and why so many people are questioning whether they can actually afford parenthood. From record-low birth rates and rising childcare fees to fertility costs, housing pressure and the motherhood penalty, they explore what it really costs to raise a family today.
