The (Not-So) Secret Life of an American Teenager

Episode - The (Not-So) Secret Life of an American Teenager

In our first-ever solo episode, Victoria shares a part of her story she doesn’t share often. She was a teen mom at the age of 17, and while people saw the shock, heard the gossip and witnessed the struggle, they didn’t see what it did to her, her mom, or her son behind the scenes. Years later, she’s still unpacking that. 

She talks about how her version of motherhood looked nothing like the moms around her, how growing up happened fast, and why, even now, she wouldn’t change a thing. This episode is about what’s real and what it means to grow up while raising someone else.
