Independence with Dana & Lindi Finn Artwork

Dear Mom, Love Daughter

Similar to a relationship with your Mother... or Daughter, sometimes we seek advice, sometimes we seek a good laugh...or cry, and sometimes we just want to know someone else understands. Tune in to Dear Mom, Love Daughter as we discuss the highs and lows of life through the lens of a Mother-Daughter relationship. Between social media and news, there is a growing saturation of right versus wrong, healthy versus unhealthy, and real versus fake. Just as if you are sitting down to write a letter to your Mother or Daughter, we aim to reveal the reality of Mother-Daughter relationships through interviews of Mother-Daughter duos of all backgrounds and ages, as well as our own. Together, we will dive into candid discussions and sometimes storytelling about life's most challenging and gratifying moments.

Dear Mom, Love Daughter

Independence with Dana & Lindi Finn

June 26, 2020 • Becca and Andrea Jacobs / Dana and Lindi Finn • Season 1 • Episode 6

In this week's episode, Becca and Andrea interview another mother-daughter duo: 14-year-old Lindi Finn and her mom Dana Finn. The discussion revolves around Lindi being at an age where she is beginning to seek independence, and what that means for their mother-daughter relationship. Ironically, seeking freedom and independence often brings about feelings of constraint and frustration. This time period can be some of the most difficult years for any parent-child relationship.

These teenage years are some of the hardest times, and it seems like no one fully understands how to handle them. But, they are some of the most crucial times for a person's development. Tune in to hear Lindi and Dana's story and how we all seek independence in different ways, but often have similar emotions and questions surrounding the topic.
