LMP E03: Happy Mother's Day, Neplanteras!

Rosalba

Happy Mother's Day, Step-Mamacitas! In this episode of La Madrastra, we will get into our understanding of what a Mother is, the Mother Archetype, assuming the mother role and Mother's Day feels. 

We explore the stepmom identity through Gloria Anzaldua's theoretical framework of Mestizaje, Borderlands, and Neplantla. Straddling identities that exist in direct opposition, creates the opportunity to awaken, create, and evolve, and as stepmother's we have the opportunity not just to create our reality, but also re-write the narrative of the stepmother identity.
