Synopsis
Hosted by Dee and Kathleen, Mamas With Attitude is a no holds barred podcast by Dee Marco and Kathleen Ebersohn, where they drop endless bars on the truth about motherhood. Both moms are based in Johannesburg, South Africa, and from having endless conversations about the ugly (and many beautiful) truths about motherhood, child-rearing and the various joys and fears along the way, the pair decided to start a public platform that holds fort for some of these chats. MWA often invites guests to speak frankly and informally about their experiences in raising children. It is a space that is constantly and actively developing and which holds dear the idea of speaking collectively about different experiences of mothering and women-ing, the choices we make, the challenges we face and the humour throughout.
