Episode 3114: Shawna Scafe examines the mothers our culture applauds and the mothers it quietly dismisses, starting with that loaded little phrase, just a mom. She shares what it felt like to be called that after leaving her career, and makes the case that a mother's worth is not something anyone else gets to hand out. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://simpleonpurpose.ca/moms-without-value-just-a-mom/ Quotes to ponder: "It's a term that makes it socially acceptable to discreetly tear down the value of being a mother." "For modern moms there is little value put on being a stay at home mom, it's not enough." "You have to know that you are valuable as a mother no matter how mundane it may feel."
