6: Mum’s The Word: Exploring Motherhood And Identity, With Candice Brathwaite and Kate Everall

For this podcast we wanted to tackle identity and motherhood – specifically, how your sense of self changes when you become a mum and as your children grow up, and how the intersection of other identities plays into parenthood as a whole.
We are joined by two women on the podcast who are carving out spaces to represent motherhood in all its glorious variety: Candice Brathwaite, author of I Am Not Your Baby Mother and founder of Make Motherhood Diverse, and Kate Everall of LesBeMums, an award-winning blog documenting the life of her two-mum family and other LGBTQ+ issues.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
