Grace Edison appears on the show again in deep turmoil. As she hits new targets of success she has been aiming for, “mom guilt” arises. On one hand she knows she is up against outdated ancestral patterns about what it means to be a good mother. On the other hand she knows that her success is good for her children, especially her daughter.

I talk about the woman who helped me navigate this a few years back. Her words affected how I choose to raise Indigo, and the person she is becoming.

I rap with Grace Edison about Mom-Guilt, the duality that can exist with success and motherhood – must we choose? Can we have both and do both well?

“What I have realized, reflectively, in the yogahealer courses is that we ignite ambition, and most women have a masculine experience of ambition at this point – which is that it can be cut throat, competitive, winners vs loser – but when we are more balance, and have a more non-dual experience then there can be a sense of who I want to be, and what I really want – and who I really am!”  – Cate
