9. Mother's Days Musings with Nicole Haase

The Knitty Gritty Podcast with Melissa and Susie

Get ready to celebrate the women who raised us, because it's Mother's Day, baby! But let's be real, motherhood isn't all sunshine and rainbows. We've all had our fair share of uncooked macaroni art and Tabasco omelets, am I right? Well, Melissa knows all about it, and she and Susie are joined by the cofounder of Modern Prairie, Nicole Haase, to reminisce about past Mother's Days and share some hilarious stories.
We're also talking about the value of self-care and finding fulfillment in our own passions. Because let's face it, we can't pour from an empty cup, ladies! We also acknowledge that Mother's Day isn't just about our biological moms, but also the amazing mother figures in our lives, like grandmas, aunts, and stepmom.
In this episode:

• Find out exactly what Melissa, Susie, and Nicole would do on Mother’s Day if they had the choice (psst… it’s not what you think! Or maybe it is….)
• Learn about the time Susie was “extra thrifty” with her Mother’s Day shopping
• Dig into why it’s important for women to use their voices, feel heard, and surround themselves with supportive people who validate them and allow them to express themselves

So grab a mimosa and join us as we celebrate motherhood, acknowledge the challenges, and highlight the importance of self-care and self-love.
