In this episode, I speak with Jamie Engelhardt, a brand strategist and mother of three, about solo parenting, breaking generational mother codes, and embracing queerness. 

Jamie shares where she’s at on the rollercoaster ride of parenthood, holding many types of tension and opposites at once, and what she sees as some of the most significant generational differences in how she was raised compared to this generation. There’s a lot to learn in recognizing that our children’s childhood isn’t the one we grew up in. 

Jamies recalls a healing experience in Mexico where women from her lineage revealed to her in a vision that she is at her most free when mothering herself and her children. We discuss how she is actively rewriting the mother codes in her family and breaking generational cycles. Some of those new codes include expressing love to her children, coming out as queer, and living deeply in her authenticity.
