• TODAY’S FEATURED ARTICLE • I’d Rather Be at Home (& other reasons I cancelled those plans…) by Mary Grace O’Brien ( @pepperobrien ) ——————— “For a good many years, I was the master of the elaborate excuse. While I can’t say I’m particularly proud of it, I must admit that such a skill got me out of quite a lot of things that, simply put, I just didn’t want to do. I’ll also just go ahead and own up to the fact that this got me in heaps of trouble as a teenager when I was caught in said excuses, which was frequently enough that I ought to have been more deterred from continuing crafting these tales… And yet… On they went, because social niceties dictated that if there was something I couldn’t do or someplace I couldn’t be, there had to be some kind of reason.“ ——————— Click the link in our bio to read today’s article and remember to donate to the author at the bottom for volunteering her time to FH. 🖤
In today’s article, Mary Grace O’Brien ( @pepperobrien ) talks about the power of honesty, the ability to say no, and allowing others to simply cancel plans without a reason that feeds our ego.

• TODAY’S FEATURED ARTICLE • Dear Scarlet: A Review by Amy Cronin Dicaprio ( @nosmallfeat ) ————— “Even in its darkness, Dear Scarlet feels brave. To talk about postpartum depression at all can feel risky for new mothers: to admit you are struggling to bond with your baby, that none of it feels right, that you are unhappy…for a person trying to survive with postpartum depression, these feelings can deepen the loneliness and guilt that is already exacerbated by the depression, and keep mothers from seeking help.” ————— Click the link in our bio or visit FeministHomemaker.com today. Remember, you can donate to @nosmallfeat directly at the bottom of the article 🖤

•TODAY’S FEATURED ARTICLE• I Had to Go Through the Wrong Ones to Be Ready for the Right One by Mary Grace O’Brien ( @pepperobrien ). ————— “But I had to go on the shitty dates. I had to go out with the wrong people to understand what I really needed from the right person. Let’s be clear for the people in the back: I did not have to be ignored and manipulated and cheated on and a whole host of other slimy things. But I was. There’s no purpose in ignoring the fact. It was awful and I hated it and I don’t wish those feelings of worthlessness on anyone. And yet I’d go through all of it again if it got me to where I am now. I needed the bad relationships to help me recognize a good one. I’m a creature who learns best by comparison, I suppose.“ ————— Tap the link in our bio to read today’s article and please consider donating to the author for her time and energy.

•TODAY’S FEATURED ARTICLE• Poverty: A Tale of Grief and Coping by Camille Adair ( @kanyeesi ) ———————— “I struggled with authority figures my entire life. It wasn’t uncommon that I came out of my mouth to anyone. I did what I wanted, I didn’t do what I didn’t want to do, and I followed my life path with reckless abandon. My big head—full of the gift you’re given as a teenager, all knowing power—could never weigh me down. I sprinted forth with both my hands and feet on the ground; I broke wind with my invincibility. Ultimately, I sprinted right into a hole. I’ve been here ever since. There’s a warden here, let’s call her Poverty. “ ———————— Tap the link in our bio to read Camille’s article. Please consider tipping her for time and energy 🖤

•TODAY’S FEATURED ARTICLE• Booby Trapped: Navigating the Complexities of National Breastfeeding Month by Amy Cronin DiCaprio ( @nosmallfeat) ————— “No matter how mothers choose to feed their babies, other people seem to have something to say about it. It is all too common to hear stories of women being illegally forced to leave public pools, restaurants, and retail stores because the sight of her feeding her baby has made some stranger feel uncomfortable. Babies need to eat frequently…newborns as much as every hour or two…and it is completely unreasonable to expect nursing mothers to stay hidden in their homes around the clock in order to feed them. Women are shamed for doing the exact thing that OBGYNs, midwives, pediatricians, parenting books, lactation consultants, and the media are telling them to do: the trick is that no one is supposed to see them doing it.“ ————— Click the link in our bio to read this article and remember to tip the author for all her hard work.
