Turn every family moment into an efficiency test.
Disturb
The idea that motherhood cancels desire or personal style.
Where did your own style and desire go?
Sarah and Simona talk about clothes, confidence and the parts of a woman’s identity that can get pushed aside by family life. They discuss feeling attractive and making space for self-expression.
The conversation also questions the habit of treating every family moment as something to organise efficiently. There is room to enjoy life as well as keep it moving.
