Catherine Ricketts, essayist, songwriter, writing instructor, and author of The Mother Artist: Portraits of Ambition, Limitation, and Creativity, is my guest today. We talk about: The historical underrepresentation of mothers in the art world and the societal factors contributing to this. The tension between caring for children and dedicating time to creative work. The importance of support systems, self-belief, and a sense of purpose for mothers. The value of art created by mothers and how we can all support all caregivers in their creative pursuits.
