Podcast Rediscovering Self Through Reading in Motherhood

from Books & Banter with Les & Co. · host DAMN

In this episode, Jasmyne and I dive into how reading helped her find herself again in motherhood—because let’s be honest, she’s doing the parenting and I’m just here with my TBR pile and opinions. She shares how books rebuilt her confidence, gave her a purpose outside of mom life, and reminded her she’s more than a snack provider-in-chief. We also talk about how the book community helped her feel less isolated and how escaping into stories sometimes feels like the only “me time” she gets. Lots of laughs, a little chaos, and a whole lot of love for the power of reading.Join Les and rotating cast of co-hosts for a weekly fun filled, talk about all things books!You can shoot us an email to [email protected] matter who you are we guarantee you will find a show (or multiple) for yourself on the Dufferin Ave Media Network!
