It's dropping as Episode 86, not Episode 15.  That's not a mistake.When I relaunched Speak, Mother earlier this year I reset the episode count to one. But the more I sat with it, the more wrong it felt, because I didn't start over. I evolved. And the 70+ episodes behind this version of the show deserved to be counted.This episode is my story: the teaching career, the operations job, the layoff, the grief, the postpartum fog, and the breadcrumbs that led me exactly here.

Your messy, nonlinear, nobody-could-have-planned-this path counts. All of it.Help me build the Speak, Mother Summer Series.
