When mainstream women's media left conservative women behind, Jayme Franklin and her co-founder Isabelle Redfield decided to create The Conservateur. What began as a passion project during their time at UC Berkeley has grown into one of the most influential platforms for conservative women, blending politics, fashion, beauty, and traditional values. Jayme joins guest host Emma DeGrado to share how she weathered intense backlash after launching The Conservateur in 2020 and earned a seat at the table in the new media landscape.
Emma and Jayme dive into why aesthetics matter in the policy world, the rise of socialism among Gen Z, and how conservative media can better reach young women. Jayme shares her perspective on encouraging marriage and motherhood, balancing a growing media career with family life, and a new pro-family policy proposal that she developed with her husband. From navigating online criticism to making her voice heard in Washington, Jayme offers advice to young women looking to build meaningful careers without compromising their values.
