Welcome! Join me in celebrating the good mother within yourself.


Every mother longs to do well by her children.

But what about women who lack a strong model to fashion their mothering on? How are they to become the good mothers they aspire to be?

In Mothering Without a Map, a blend of memoir, research and women's stories, Kathryn Black offers the good news that one doesn't have to have had a good mother to become one. There are other paths to discovering the good mother within.
