We’re just shy of the summer solstice, which means our quarterly horoscopes have arrived. This season’s invitation to slow down and reflect on what matters most feels especially resonant alongside the stories we’re sharing this week.
One offers a sobering but essential look at the state of maternal mental health. The data is striking, but what stayed with me most was the reminder that when mothers aren’t well, no one is.
I also had the privilege of speaking with the incredible Anna Malaika Tubbs, PhD—mother, sociologist, advocate, and bestselling author—for this week’s episode of The goop Podcast. We explored what it means to reclaim motherhood as a space of agency and strength—especially for women of color, whose voices and stories have so often been left out.
Wishing you a beautiful start to summer.
Love,
Gwyneth
