S3:16 EP41: The Gift, Power, and Trials of Motherhood

Happy Belated Mother's Day! On this episode, Katie shares some of her own experiences of motherhood and the many ways mothers bring incredibly unique, powerful gifts to the world. We'll talk about the 'both-and' of motherhood (so hard, so beautiful), the fact that mothers cannot and should not be caring for children alone, how children teach us to be beautifully unproductive,' and then we'll celebrate two amazingly strong mothers from the Harry Potter Universe.   Recorded outside accompanied by our two miniature donkeys on a beautiful evening in May!    www.bornofwonder.com  Leave a review for the podcast on iTunes and leave a star rating on Spotify!    Support the podcast on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bornofwonder?fan_landing=true     "On Becoming a Mother without a Mother" https://www.bornofwonder.com/home/on-becoming-a-mother-without-a-mother    "How Both Traditionalists and Feminists Misunderstand Women and Babies" https://www.bornofwonder.com/home/both-feminists-and-traditionalists-misunderstand-women-and-babies    "Pregnancy: Pray, Hope, Don't Worry" https://www.bornofwonder.com/home/pregnancy-pray-hope-dont-worry    Katie's "Emotional Mom Songs" Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1OkwUSgT4PJWGfyG6ttr2f?si=5vuJpX6NT8eP5roatD2UYg&utm_source=copy-link
