The Mother Issue

<p><strong>THE MOTHER ISSUE</strong></p><br><p>Welcome to series 3 of Lennon Courtney Left Alone, a podcast about conversations we have when we’re left alone.</p><br><p>This week it’s The Mother Issue.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The child/mother dynamic can be a tricky one to navigate sometimes but if you’re lucky, your mother will be your biggest supporter and source of great comfort throughout your life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>We talk about the trap some mothers fall into of doing it all and that emotional labour needs to be evenly carried by both parents. Brendan talks about his beloved mam and how well they get on but may think twice about working together in the future. Sonya shares her experience of motherhood and talks about how she is the product of brilliant parenting from her firebrand mum. We also talk about tattoos and ear piercing for some reason.</p><br><p>Now, here comes the science part...we know you hear it all the time but it really helps the podcast grow when people leave reviews and give us a five star rating on iTunes or wherever you listen.
