Ep. 7: Being a 'bad' mother, with Elizabeth Austin
Update: 2025-05-01
Description
Elizabeth Austin is a writer whose work has appeared in TIME, Harper’s Bazaar, Narratively, and many others -- some of it focused on how she considers herself to be a ‘bad’ mom. As a memoirist she explores the intricacies of relationships and often self-interrogates -- something that anyone who is estranged knows can be a complicated process. She is co-editor of the forthcoming anthology, Root Cause: Stories of health, harm, and reclaiming our humanity in an epidemic of loneliness.

The book Elizabeth recommends is In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Gabor Mate.
