This one is more centered for our mothers out there but just as valuable for others to hear. Chances are you've experienced or witnessed "mom shaming". Knowingly or unknowingly.
Jen and I share personal experiences and emphasize the lack of support and judgment we can have as individual people/parents as well as societal pressures that contribute to the issue. We provide some tools and practical tips for handling mom shaming and also offer suggestions of small actions to infuse love instead of shame into situations.
