Family life
Leotta has described Mamma Dilettante as growing out of the long calls she made to friends about pregnancy and becoming a parent. Hearing that other women shared the same doubts prompted her to turn those conversations into a podcast intended to make listeners feel less alone in the experience.Source: Mediaset / Verissimo, reporting her F interview ↗
