Show Notes

In the arena of entangled and often painful human relationships, the mother-daughter relationship may be paramount. If you think about it for a moment, you realize that every woman on earth has been inside of another woman, and then come out and had to differentiate or at least grow apart from that original home. Women are far too often alienated from within themselves, divided against themselves, their bodies, and each other. Without blame, we may need to see that the mother-daughter bond has to be clarified by women in order to stop the alienation from ourselves and other women and to explore our own conflicts and power dynamics in order for us to move ahead as self-confident women. In this podcast, Polly and Eleanor are joined by Polly’s adult daughter Amber Rickert to speak together about this complex and too-often avoided conversations about how mothers and daughters affect each other over the generations.
