In this episode, I sit down with Lizzy Mathis, Founder of The Cool Mom Co. and Co-host of Honest Renovations, to discuss the transition from non-motherhood to motherhood and how mothers can lose themselves when caring for others; to the importance of finding yourself again after having children; to how filling our cups as mothers should be a joyful process. Lizzy also shares her experiences as a black woman in society, the complexities of raising black children in today’s world, and how we can all have conversations about race at home. Finally, we talk about Lizzy’s new home renovation project with Jessica Alba, Honest Renovations, and why everyone can connect to home renovation shows.
