It's Complicated: Mother's Day Edition

Every year around Mother’s Day, the United States encourages us to honor mothers despite the lack of institutional support provided via child care, maternity leave, and prenatal healthcare. What about those who have complicated relationships with their moms? How do we feel when Mother's Day rolls around?!? I speak to DuShaun of https://sagegawdcollective.com/ about the trials she has with her mom and the tribulations I have with mine. We hope you enjoy our stories and this convo offers insight into your own relationships!

Seriously, check out DuShaun, she is doing great work!
