What You'll Learn on this Show:

  • Experiences in her own life that inspired Esther to create Mom of Bigs.
  • How moms can navigate what's often a challenging transition period when their children fly the nest.

  • Esther's incredibly moving letter to her younger self.
  • And so much more…

Quotes:

"We should give our kids roots of unconditional love and the wings of freedom, to be completely themselves."— Esther Goetz.


"If we could get rid of these four words in everybody's life, we would be so much further along. And those words are:  But they're my family." — Esther Goetz.


"I'm not doing enough. I'm not a good enough mom. I'm too much of a mom. It's this comparison trap that leads to a feeling of shame and guilt" — Esther Goetz.
