"I feel like the demands being put upon me [as a mother] are the equivalent of those on an elite athlete."
Katie Halloran is a mother of three and author of the substack blog, the Mediocre Mother. In this light-hearted and candid conversation, Katie shares wisdom born only from deep personal struggle and experience, such as:
- the unexpected hardships of motherhood - rediscovering creative practice post-partum - parenting a child with ADHD - the paradox of loving and hating parenting (and sometimes your children) - radical self-responsibility as a parent ie. "do what you gotta do to do what you gotta do. - why boys love to say the word "butts" (still a mystery!)
