get born is as close to truth in Motherhood as I can come. Why are people so set on painting motherhood as all soft and fuzzy?
get born provides an unvarnished (and therefore comforting) view of parenting.
get born fills a connection to a woman’s spirit
get born IS THE ONLY MAGAZINE AROUND THAT GETS PAST ALL THE WONDERHOOD OF BEING AN PARENT AND GETS TO THE NITTY GRITTY.
get born fulfills a need for the messy side of parenting to be aired and normalized.
get born talks about the experience of motherhood. I love its voice (and am proud to have contributed once to that voice.) I don’t need a magazine to help me potty train or to choose trendy vacation clothes for my baby. My children are no longer super-small, but the reality of owning a mother’s (sometimes broken) heart is everlasting.
Writing for get born provides me with empathetical participation in the honest, and let’s face it, insane world of parenting.
I write for get born because I am a mother and a writer and being both isn’t always pretty – get born looks at the underbelly of motherhood.
