In this special Mother's Day edition of "Actual People," host Chauncey Zalkin shares a real-life story of serendipity and chance encounters in the mom era of her life.
Three weeks ago, a Saturday morning bagel run turns into an unforeseen adventure when our host and her daughter Sky discover Elijah, a scarred, malnourished, and beautiful older pit bull, wandering the streets in the rain. This episode delves into how they react to Elijah, reflecting on the broader themes of care, compassion, and the complexities of motherhood.
This episode contemplates intuition, personal ethics, and decision trees as well as the day-to-day life of a single mother doing the most.

- The role of routine and organization in managing a busy household.
- The emotional and practical aspects of adopting and caring for a rescue dog.
