Two Generations of Motherhood: A Candid Conversation with My Mom

from Be Mom Your Way: The Inner Work of Being a Mother · host Jessica Zielske | Behavior Analyst | Motherhood Strategist

This week, my very first guest joins me — my mom. 💛We sit down for an honest, funny, and heartfelt conversation about motherhood across two generations — what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what really matters.From raising one child in the late ’80s to raising three under three today, we talk about presence, pressure, mom guilt, boundaries, and how every decade brings its own version of “doing your best.” You’ll hear stories about babysitters before FaceTime, family meetings that built connection, and what it means to trust yourself as a mom — even when the world has a lot of opinions.If you’ve ever wondered whether moms today have it easier or harder (spoiler: it’s both), this episode will make you feel seen, grounded, and a little more confident doing motherhood your way.🎧 Be Mom Your Way — Two Generations of Motherhood: A Candid Conversation with My MomKeywords: motherhood, generations of moms, working mom, stay-at-home mom, modern motherhood, parenting then vs now, mom guilt, presence, work-life balance, boundaries, women’s stories, acceptance, ACT, Be Mom Your Way
