Pushing back against a system which feels designed to keep parents isolated and exhausted, Latched Mama founder, Melissa Wirt shows moms how to build a supportive "village" to bring joy and connection back to motherhood. Melissa Wirt thought she had everything--she'd built her own company and lived on a beautiful farm with her family. Then, during a time of difficulty, she began shutting down. Her pain came with a realization: she'd become utterly isolated. Despite having created an online community reaching over one million moms, she still felt adrift. Upon closer investigation, however, she saw she was not alone: moms are overwhelmed, exhausted, and in many cases, terribly lonely. It may be that our culture and government have dropped the ball in supporting us, but in that vacuum exists a resource within reach: each other. In I Was Told There'd be a Village, Melissa describes how she began making small changes--leaving behind a damaging Isolation mindset and adopting a Village mindset. Using personal anecdotes and stories from moms across the country, her book provides specific, actionable steps to transform oppressive, solitary parenting into a connected, collective (even joyful) endeavor. Motherhood can and should come with emotional support, and this book shows how to find that--by building back the community we've lost and joining one another along the way.
