A Space for Her Within Me Thank You, Mama

Sanaë Lemoine is the author of “The Margot Affair”, a debut novel about a mother-daughter relationship that won highest praise from reputable outlets such as “New York Times”, “”Financial Times”, “The Economists”. Sanaë shares lessons from her Japanese mama Akiko who grew up in South America, moved around the world, and went through a surprise divorce in her mid-sixties – to become Akiko 2.0, a better and happier version of herself. We learn about the importance of creativity, showing love through food, not comparing yourself to others, and feeling good in your skin. Sanaë also talks about how a mother-daughter relationship can evolve and improve, and how we should learn that what we see in our parents’ relationship doesn’t need to be a blueprint for our relationships.
