86: Marianne Williamson on Running for President in 2024 and the Importance of Motherhood in America

For a long time, it has been reinforced to many of us that being a mother caring for her children and taking care of her home is a woman’s most important role. At present, women have been empowering themselves while still being able to provide care.

In today’s episode with Marianne, we’ll talk about the importance of women – particularly, being a mother – in the current times where public policies are almost proactively neglectful of our children.

Show Highlights:

• America’s children are the biggest collateral damage
• It’s not just about our children, it’s also about our grandchildren
• Principles of peace-building
• We are the most medicated society in the world and in some ways the least healthy
• There’s no magic wand to heal society
• Why women need to be at the forefront of imagining the world that we want

The code of natural genius within the mother is already there. What we need to do is unlearn the diminishment of that and make a stand for that and other women too because we're not going to get there unless all of us get there.

We have to be inclusive. For that, we need to see other women struggling to get past the patriarchal prejudices in their lives. Do what you can to lend a hand. We need to do this together.
