In this episode, I got to chat with Amanda Jetté Knox, author, journalist, and overall kick ass mom and wife. We talked about surviving a suicide attempt, thriving with self-love, and what it means to mother others. Amanda shared so generously with me and I hope you take away something special from this episode.
