And she shares the story of her nonlinear journey to motherhood and why she was adamat about being a stay at home mom. She also gives some words of encouragement to all the women raising littles, but admits it doesn’t exactly getting easier as they grow up. 

As for the key to motherhood? Cricket says it’s all about leaning on your tribe.
