HINDSIGHT IS… 2020

This week on The Great Equalizer, Sam has a birthday (whoop whoop), Charlene has a handle on things (for now) and we discuss whether hindsight can really bring you insight when it comes to being a mom.

The best thing about parenting is that you eventually become really good at it… Until your child levels up and the joke’s on you. They inevitably turn another year older, enter a fresh new transition and challenge you right from the start. And then BOOM. You know nothing again (or still). Surprise!

Essentially, we’ve long come to realise that we never know what the f*ck we’re doing, which means the only clarity that hindsight offers parents is this: Nothing ever stays the same for very long, so best we all learn to ride the waves of uncertainty like the ragged queens we are.

In the latest episode of The Great Equalizer, we (Joburg moms Sam Herbst and Charlene Armstrong) chat about how we’ll be parenting differently this year, taking into account all the lessons that came out of 2019. We also look into identity and our sense of selves, and how we plan to regain a semblance of our old (new?) self in 2020. Can we do it!? #Staytuned, folks.
