Episode 79: WHAT WE REALLY WANT FOR MOTHER'S DAY! with author/illustrator Polly Dunbar

--:--
How do you feel about Mother's Day? Is it something you look forward to? Does it ever live up to the hype? Do you feel as appreciated as you should? Do you spend the day taking care of other moms in your life? Is it just another day?

On this episode of The Great Equalizer, we chat about all dem Mother's Day feels and what we (as moms) want on our big day.

We also rope in children's book author and illustrator Polly Dunbar whose new book 'Hello, Mum' has perfectly captured the hearts and minds of mothers everywhere.

Polly tells us how she feels about Mother's Day, offers some insight into her background as a children's book illustrator, and reveals how she took her everyday parental ambivalence and turned it into the chronicles of the Every Mom in 2021.
