Trish was so wonderful to chat with.  We talked about her mothering, being a mother to a child who made to the other side of substance abuse and her eldest child who is a trans young woman. Our conversation wasn't solely focused on her trans daughter, which  She shared what both of her children have taught her about herself and how she is living her best life!

BANNED READING FOR THE SOUL - Some of Our Favorite Women Teachers/Writers

Thank you for listening to another episode of The Mommalogues Podcast.  Last month I was really struck by the amount of toxic fragility that seems to be permeating every aspect of our lives in this country and many parts of the world.  So many more lives are in danger for just existing!    These authors have shown up at so many stages of my life.  They helped me fall in love with words and reading and even writing.    So if this is just an opportunity listen of me reading Wikipedia and Spark Notes or other random Googled content  thanks  but also I really hope you will learn a little something and be inspired to share.  Enjoy I do not have any rights to any of the prerecorded content shared with Audre Lorde, Alice Walker, Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Bell Hooks & Sandra Cisneros   Take the time to pause, meditate & pray...

A Candid Conversation Between Mother & Son...Whew - Part 1

I had the most awesome and slightly nerve wracking conversation with my son last week...On my Birthday at that.  He wanted to get to know me and find out more about this lady who has mothered him all these years.  He wanted to know about the woman who mothered her.   It was hard, hopeful, eye-opening and dare I say...Healing. I am grateful for my son and who he is in the world.  I am grateful that he trusts me enough to ask about who he is through me and who I am at the most vulnerable.  I'm grateful for my mother.  I am grateful that she was brave enough to do what was scary by loving me at all cost and grateful that her journey to show me to envision something bigger than yourself and make it happen.  Take the time to pause, meditate & pray...
