- Society & Culture
Similar to a relationship with your Mother... or Daughter, sometimes we seek advice, sometimes we seek a good laugh...or cry, and sometimes we just want to know someone else understands. Tune in to Dear Mom, Love Daughter as we discuss the highs and lows of life through the lens of a Mother-Daughter relationship. Between social media and news, there is a growing saturation of right versus wrong, healthy versus unhealthy, and real versus fake. Just as if you are sitting down to write a letter to your Mother or Daughter, we aim to reveal the reality of Mother-Daughter relationships through interviews of Mother-Daughter duos of all backgrounds and ages, as well as our own. Together, we will dive into candid discussions and sometimes storytelling about life's most challenging and gratifying moments.
