Mothers as Loving Experts (Part 1 of 3)
Manage episode 378886742 series 3447556
For our third episode of Rewriting the Rules℠ Season 2, we’re continuing our focus on being the adult we wished we had as a child and teen, from the perspectives of our mothers. For this episode, we’re taking a panel approach, mirroring a Sunday Dinner conversation. Through this conversation, we listen, learn, and build in community and see that we’re more connected, stronger, and powerful together. This is how we continue Creating a Community That Wraps Its Arms Around Our Youth.
