Says Summer on what disability taught me about parenting: “I grew up with a disabled mom, and she taught me to see the world in different ways — it made me a more empathetic person for life. My mom sometimes caught judgement for being a disabled mom with a small kid, but that’s such ableist B.S. I never would have wanted a different mom than the amazing one I have.”
Says Natalie on a journaling club is a brilliant way to make friends: “I was at an event tonight with a few women I only know peripherally when one of them asked us each to reveal our first email addresses. It was embarrassing, endearing and hilarious! Highly recommend as a conversation starter.”
Says Lauren on a journaling club is a brilliant way to make friends: “Dream blunt rotation.”
