A Letter to the Mothers I Met Along the Way | The Conversations So Many Parents With They Could Have

About this episode

A letter about motherhood, the small talk we make with other mums, and all the things we often leave unsaid. Kathryn @theshift.parenthood reflects on the mothers she has met on buses, at soft play, in parks and at baby groups — the brief conversations that stay on the surface, even when what we really want to ask is, how are you actually doing? From sleep and Calpol to returning to work, exhaustion and the strange new world of motherhood, sometimes a tiny moment of connection can make what we’re carrying feel a little less like ours alone.
