This week, the Good Moms are joined by comedian, and host of "Jess A Couple Things" podcast, Jessie Woo for a layered conversation on family, culture, ambition, and accountability.

From growing up as the oldest daughter in a strict Haitian household to finding her voice in the entertainment industry.
