Episode notes

I grew up with a as an only child with a mother who was a homemaker. I don't think that he took he just didn't take as much of an interest in me and as my mother did. My dad is just like such an open book. And maybe I get a lot of that from him to go back to like blaming everything on your parents, but we're better or for worse. He's the opposite of my mom. There's like no withholding nature to him.

Michelle Zauner on how to begin healing our mother wounds, using her sensitivity to deepen her relationships and be a rockstar, why she’s obsessed with sheetcake and winnebagos, and why she is still “afraid of her mental health.”
