Shannon is joined by co-author of Stolen Youth and writer for Deseret News Bethany Mandel for a discussion about the highs and lows of motherhood, and how she finds the beauty in it.

As a mother of six, Bethany understands the challenges that come with being a parent. However, she believes we must change the messaging associated with motherhood in order to better communicate the joys connected to it. Bethany shares stories about her family life and memorable details from the births of her children. Later, she discusses the moments that make motherhood worth it to her.
