I’ve tuned in over the past few months with some random episodes and am so inspired by the women of our rural land!! Keep sharing and lifting the voices of rural women and communities 🙌
I admire what Steph is doing with Motherland, however, I wish she would get better at listening and conversing in her interview style - it’s very frustrating to hear her ask questions that have just been answered through conversations. Also, please share some inspiring and happy stories. I’m a rural mum but it’s not all trauma and disaster out here - please share some happy stories.
Such important stories to tell. And so well articulated. Hopefully this is getting an audience in the cities and with the politicians!
Always enjoy the people and their stories on Motherland and particularly appreciate Steph’s professionalism and skill in conducting the interviews. 💙
I love hearing about the lives and experiences from rural mums and this podcast has helped me feel less alone in my motherhood journey.
