Elaine Welteroth, award-winning journalist and author, discusses the importance of purpose and how it guides her career and life.

Welteroth also reflects on her time as the youngest editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue and the challenges she faced in navigating her purpose within the constraints of the title.
Devi and Elaine have a moment of praise for Oprah Winfrey; as an example of someone who has used her platform to empower and elevate others.

She explains the importance of midwifery care and the need for more options and resources for birthing people.
