Episode 12: Aren't We More?
from We Weren't Told Hosted by Angel Beswick-Reid
Millennial girlies, pull up a chair — and no, for once, not at your therapist's. I went to a moms' networking event a few weeks ago and as part of an icebreaker, a woman pulled a pair of tiny socks out of her handbag. She said being her son's mother is the most important thing she has ever done in her life — and she meant it with her whole chest. And I sat there and felt something I couldn't immediately name. It took me a few days to be honest about what it actually was. In this episode, I'm talking about what happens when you love your children fiercely — and still can't locate the feeling that they are the greatest part of you. In this episode: Hunter Biden in MAGA comment sections — and what owning your shame actually does The tiny socks moment and the feeling I didn't want to admit I had Why I don't experience the greatest part of me as someone else — and the shame that came with that Whether any of us can actually rank the greatest thing we've ever done The motherhood script that had no category for women who refused to disappear Are you allowed to be the most interesting thing about yourself? Grab your drink or your iced coffee, my friend. It's go time. Come say hi on Instagram 🫶🏽 @iamangelbr | @iamwewerenttoldpodcast
