This week’s episode is a battle cry for independence. For your independence from feeling like you are trapped in a life that never quite makes sense. Like you are messing up, no matter what you do. Like it is always hard and frustrating. Like you are never quite getting the support and recognition that feels reasonable.
Does that feel like your life?
I say enough.
I know how to help you not have to choose between personhood and motherhood. I know some of the tools to help us be both, and to help it feels so much better, even in the midst of the culture that makes it feel so hard. I know a dozen ways you can lay the groundwork in your self, your home, your marriage, so that you can stand up to a culture that doesn’t really respect or value you as a mom or even as a woman, and insist on respect and equality.
