Mothers' Hood
Today we mother largely in isolation, away from our families, friends and communities. But it was never meant to be this way. We should be mothering amongst the stories of motherhood - its complexities, joys and challenges. Without hearing others’ stories we lack the reference to make sense of our own experiences and the language to express how we are feeling. It leaves mothers feeling disconnected, lost and believing there is something wrong with them. The Mothers’ Hood Podcast lifts the lid and tells the real, raw and honest stories of motherhood. It celebrates mothers thriving in motherhood and challenges the damaging modern narrative of the perfect mother and intensive mothering.
