Dr. Sophie Brock, a motherhood studies sociologist and host of The Good Enough Mother Podcast, joins the discussion to explore the complexities of being a mother. She highlights the distinctions between motherhood as a social construct, the act of mothering, and a mother's identity. Using a fishbowl analogy, Sophie explains how societal 'shoulds' influence maternal expectations. By reframing guilt as feedback, she encourages mothers to question these ideals, reclaim their agency, and find support within a community. The conversation is both insightful and empowering!
