Summary

It can feel impossible to carve out an identity and personal space in motherhood. In today's conversation, Eve Rodsky shares her own experiences and encouraging words to set us on the path to finding ourselves again. Eve transformed a “blueberries breakdown” into a catalyst for social change when she applied her Harvard-trained background in organizational management to ask the simple yet profound question: What would happen if we treated our homes as our most important organizations? Eve Rodsky is the New York Times best-selling author of Fair Play and National Bestseller, Find Your Unicorn Space.

0:00.0	Hi, Zach's mom, you know, or go say, say hello to Zach's mom, say thank you to Zach's mom.
0:06.2	No, my name is Eve. My name is Eve. And having my kids understand that and really unpacking
0:13.1	what it means to be a full human being with your own name was one of the first unlearnings
0:20.0	today I had to do. Hi, this is Denay. I'm the founder of Simple Families. Simple Families
0:27.7	is an online community for parents who are seeking a simpler, more intentional life.
0:32.9	In this show, we focus on minimalism with kids, positive parenting, family wellness,
0:38.7	and decreasing the mental load. My perspectives are based in my first-hand experience raising kids,

1:39.9	everything that she said. I wasn't sure how you were going to perceive some of the things that she
1:45.9	says. In fact, I found myself channeling last week's episode with Julie Bogart on raising critical
1:52.6	thinkers when thinking about this week's episode. I loved talking to Eve and considering some of
2:00.3	the ideas that I hadn't thought about before. She left me with a lot of food for thought.
2:07.6	And how do we grow as individuals if we go around seeking out everyone who agrees with us
2:13.0	about everything? In our conversation today, there is a little bit of profanity, so if you have
2:18.0	young kids around, make sure that you listen without them. Even I are talking mostly about identity
