YOU ARE A F*CKING AWESOME MOM So Embrace the Chaos, Get Over the Guilt, and Be True to You

Aimed at moms who blame themselves for the chaos that children bring into their lives, this audio will free tortured souls. Part of its winning formula is that Leslie Bruce's writing is as authentic as writing can be. She's a faithful observer of not just her personal experience but also the cultural landscape, the one that blames mothers, and women more generally, for any discomfort they feel. As an audio, her familiar cadences and fearless intimacy are highly effective; she sounds like someone you know, trust, and believe. Her use of tough language and blunt imagery enhances the audio's "don't blame yourself" message. Her uncensored reactions and venting offer tangible examples of how mothers can accept and express their feelings instead of silently judging themselves.
