This was so powerful in so many ways. I especially related to the part about transitions and how we as humans race from one thing to another constantly without ever stopping to process. I feel this deeply as it relates to motherhood and giving birth. If more women were given the opportunity to pause after having a child, instead of rushing back to work so we don't lose our jobs, we would all be better off.
thank you so much Cris- It means so much to me that this piece resonated with you, and I agree, it is a theft when parents don’t get time and space to be present with their babies and are constantly having to worry about what’s coming next. I hope I can write and ponder more about transitions in the future.
