  • Unique & relatable.

    I became aware of Satya from listening to Alex Elle's podcast recently. The first episode I listened to on our mothers' garden's, was episode 5 and I enjoyed through all the way through. I love how everyone's responses to the questions are all different and it really makes you think about how it applies to your own life. The content isn't like anything you normally hear on social media and thats what sets it apart! Cant wait to check out more.

  • It’s Good But

    The podcast is good, I guess my only downside is the episodes lack descriptions. When you have a podcast about motherhood and mothering each episode can resonate with someone differently. Sometimes people go in search of a specific episode but with this one you can’t because you can’t really see too much of what the episode is about. I would have liked to be able to read descriptions so that I could listen to an episode that I know would resonate

  • Candace F.

    I listened to the interview and another interview with another mama and I really enjoyed listening as I could relate to both the interviewer and the moms being interviewed in some way or another. Keep up the great work! Helping to put words to dormant feelings and learning to love myself more deeply.

  • Unfiltered Soul Candy

    This podcast is a beautiful and honest look into a topic that isn’t explored that often, if at all.

    As a woman of color, I’ve always observed how different my relationship with my mother was compared to other women in other cultures. Not better or worse... just different.

    This podcast unveils ALL of the questions that I often have asked myself. What is a mother? How does who my mother is or was effect me? Is it

    Possible that her weeds in her garden helped me become the woman I am today, just... more

  • Beautiful and Honest

    Satya has such an amazing way of listening and asking the questions that dig deep into the soul of her guests. We get to hear the honest truths of their mothering experience and how the way they were raised laid foundations for how they wanted to love.

  • Simply necessary

    As a mother learning how to mother herself, I’ve found this show healing in a sort of way. Hearing other women’s stories of their relationships with their moms has given me a new way to process my own. Keep up the good work, this is needed!
