True mothering is allowing the space for others to be who they are. This is so true and meaningful.

We do. I might need a week or so before I feel better. My throat is scratchy and I feel like the walking dead at the moment ๐Ÿ˜†

No rush at all, Sam! I have a very FULL summer, so itโ€™s a minor miracle that Teri Leigh and I were able to squeeze this in today.

Thank you for posting thisโ€ฆ While I could not join the live discussion I got to watch it when I got off workโ€ฆ Quite powerful and quite eye-opening and amazingโ€ฆ Thank you again for sharing this and sharing your feelings on motheringโ€ฆ And being a mother is hard, but also very rewarding. I believe it is a spiritual calling for women as I think we are all mothers.

A beautiful conversation. I appreciate Sarah's input and perspective as well. She asked some clear questions that I hadn't thought to ask. I felt surrounded by so much love.
