Parenting comes with a lot of expectations, but have you ever stopped to ask where they come from? On this episode of This Is Woman’s Work , we unpack the myth of “the good mother” with Nancy Reddy , author of The Good Mother Myth . Nancy shares her personal experience of confronting the unrealistic ideal of motherhood: endlessly patient, always available, and completely selfless. She hilariously and heartbreakingly debunks these outdated ideals, rooted in flawed mid-20th-century research by figures like Harry Harlow and Dr. Spock. Nancy explains how bad science from the past continues to haunt modern parenting, creating pressure, guilt, and shame for today’s mothers. But this conversation is about more than debunking myths—it’s about empowerment. Because when you prioritize what matters and let go of perfectionism, you’re not just doing woman’s work—you’re modeling it.

I share here my daily contemplation on a verse from the Bible. I reflect on the verse and the implications of the verse for my life. Now, I have been sharing for the past two months the persecution that I have been facing for the past 10 years. In fact, these people had been trying much earlier, since I went to Australia. I am still wondering what that has to empower me, has actually made me vulnerable because of social ignorance that fails to support it, like how it does for Afghan and Musl ...
