FIM 58: Who am I Outside of My Kids with Gao Motsemme


Listen Later

Motherhood tends to be an all-consuming thing that wraps up every part of a woman's identity. Ask a mom anything about herself and she's likely to draw a blank. Then as the kids get older and spend more and more time out of the home, she's left with the question: who am I outside of my children?


This week host Amanda Haro is joined by Gao Mostsemme, who shares her story of being met with this question during a custody battle that lasted for years. She was handed court corruption but she allowed the experience to be a healing one, spanning patriarchal wounds to mother wounds to finally learning true forgiveness.


This episode is a powerful spiritual journey sure to inspire every mother who hears it.
