In this episode of Messy Genes, we throw the Mormon motherhood manual straight into the fire. Carly and Cindy unpack the myths, pressure, and pedestal that shaped our parenting scripts—and how we’re unlearning it all. From "motherhood as divine destiny" to the shame-soaked standards of being the perfect mom, we’re talking about what it's like to parent after leaving high-demand religion. Expect raw stories, dark humor, and zero eternal consequences. If you're navigating deconstruction, post-Mormon life, or just trying to raise kids without losing your mind—this one's for you.
