Ladies Like Us
Who decides what a complete life looks like and how do we decide? Ladies Like Us is an exploration of the energy of Motherhood and what becomes of it when you don’t have a child. For the motherhood curious, childless, childfree, ambivalent or a self-defined mother of any kind. The mission of this podcast is to shift the paradigm of female experience away from binary poles of Motherhood and Otherhood and into an inclusive model reflecting the spectrum of experiences lived by real women- living their mothering energy confidently and authentically. Think non-binary mothering energy. This podcast is for all who wish to feel wholeness no matter the fruit of their wombs.
