    Life Choices and Family Paths featuring Mayor Jazzmin Cobble and Sandy Johnson

    Do you remember the previous episode of motherhood? We have switched the roles.  This episode of Across Generations poses thoughtful explorations with our remarkable guests, Sandy Johnson and Mayor Jazzmin Cobble. Sandy, a seasoned realtor, shares her journey of opting for a child-free life driven by personal health and career aspirations. Meanwhile, Mayor Jazzmin Cobble juggles the joys and demands of raising a family while leading Stonecrest, Georgia. Their stories open a window into the evolving societal norms and personal choices that define parenthood across different generations. In our chapter on multi-generational households, we reflect on the intricate dynamics and invaluable lessons such living arrangements offer, especially within the Black community. The skills honed by necessity in past generations stand in stark contrast to modern parenting approaches, and these generational shifts illuminate how past experiences shape today’s family decisions. We also venture into the realm of companionship later in life, examining how previous experiences and shared life stages influence our relationships and expectations as we age. Balancing motherhood, marriage, and a demanding public career is no easy feat, yet Mayor Jazzmin Cobble provides a heartfelt account of maintaining a strong marital bond amidst these pressures. This episode bridges generational divides, highlighting shared experiences and the threads that connect us all, guided by the incredible narratives of our guests.
