Listen to Your Mother (And To Me!)

Ann Imig, creator of the Listen to Your Mother movement, is one of my oldest bloggy friends. We’ve been cheering one another on for years and today, as her first book hits the shelves, it’s my turn…

Like me, Ann believes that every mother has a story to tell. Every spring, she (and her amazing team of show producers) offer the stage to moms across the country as they share their unique perspectives on having children. Some stories are laugh out loud funny, some poignant and some gut-wrenching, but they all have one common theme: Motherhood.

Listen to Your Mother: What She Said Then, What We’re Saying Now is the culmination of years of these shows. It’s a book that will make you feel less alone in this thankless gig and leave you nodding your head in agreement. Best of all, it may inspire you to put your own words down on paper — because we all have a story to tell.

Please join me in supporting this incredible movement!

And don’t forget to buy your tickets to the show
