Regardless of the relationship (or lack thereof) that we have with ours, we all came from one. In this episode Beatrice (who is a mom) and I (who has an uhm, "flimsy" relationship with my own mother) have a vulnerable conversation about our own experiences.
It's a cool format- we kind of interviewed each other with questions we had about the other's experience. And it made for some real and raw content that I hope provides you with some sense of comfort around your own experience.
