Welcome to The MOTHER Podcast, hosted by Katie Hintz-Zambrano, the founder and editor of MOTHER (a.k.a. mothermag.com).

With over a decade of beautiful, deep, and honest storytelling under our belt, we are thrilled to bring you this podcast, which includes a series of candid interviews with folks who inspire us greatly. We’re talking artists, authors, entrepreneurs, mothers, fathers, and thought leaders of all stripes.

We’ll be exploring big topics including one’s upbringing, career journey, identity shifts, creative habits, life + loss, mothering children from babies all the way up to young adults, and the idea of legacy—where you come from, what you inherit, what you bring forward into your own life and your own parenting practices, and ultimately, what you wish to leave behind.

We hope you savor these conversations and leave them feeling informed, inspired, and connected.

Joanna Ho - The Activist, Educator, & Author on Finding Strength As A Single Mother, Embracing Her Asian-American Identity, The Importance of Representation & Changing Narratives

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 48:09

Today’s guest is Joanna Ho, the best-selling author whose children’s books cover topics such as familial roots, oppression and justice, and the importance of representation—especially for fellow Asian Americans. After years of rejection, her first book, Eyes That Kiss In The Corners, became an instant New York Times Best-Seller in 2021. She’s gone on to publish 9 other books for children and young adults, including her most recent release, We Who Produce Pearls: An Anthem For Asian America.

Written in her signature lyrical style, the book covers the rich, nuanced, and incredibly diverse history of Asians in America and includes a very detailed section in the back that urges children and adults to go deeper with guiding questions and additional research.

In today’s conversation, we talk to Joanna about finding strength in becoming a single mom, embracing the beauty in her Asian American identity, the power of representation in kid-lit, the devastation of book bans sweeping across the country, and her ultimate goal of sparking revolutions—both big and small.

Kate Baer: The Best-Selling Poet on Raising 4 Children, The Pressures of Success, Navigating Body Talk, and Growing Up As A Latchkey Kid in The 90s

Wednesday, July 31, 2024 • Duration 42:27

Today’s guest is Kate Baer, the beloved poet whose work explores motherhood, marriage, misogyny, the sacredness of female friendships—and so much more.

Kate’s very first book, What Kind of Woman, was released during the turbulence of 2020—mere days after the 2020 presidential election. It was the first time she was ever paid to write and it became a #1 New York Times best-seller.

A year later, she released another best-seller: I Hope This Finds You Well, a stunning collection of erasure poems in which she uses the often offensive commentary she’s received on social media to create her work. The latest book of the Pennysalvania-native is 2022’s And Yet, which continues her streak of crafting the most beautiful truth bombs.

In today’s conversation, we talk to Kate about raising 4 children, her next book, the pressure that comes with all those accolades, the glory of being an unsupervised latchkey kid in the 90s, and how the unplanned pregnancy of her 4th child changed the course of her life and career.

Latham Thomas: The Superstar Doula on the Power of Birth, Attachment Parenting, Embracing Ease, and Her ‘Open Nest’ Period

Wednesday, July 17, 2024 • Duration 42:27

Today’s guest is Latham Thomas, the superstar doula and founder of Mama Glow—a global maternal health + education platform serving birthing people along the childbearing continuum.

Inspired by the transcendent birth of her own son 21 years ago, Latham went on to become a doula herself—including to stars like Alicia Keys, Anne Hathaway, and Ashley Graham—and to create a doula training program that’s educated hundreds of birth workers and touched thousands of lives.

She’s also an author, visiting professor at Brown, and the co-founder of the Mama Glow Foundation, a non-profit committed to advancing reproductive justice + birth equity through education, advocacy, and the arts.

In this episode, Latham discusses her upbringing, attachment parenting, the importance of teaching kids body literacy, and how she’s embracing her current “open nest” period.

Be on the lookout for a Part Two of our conversation with Latham, in which she shares her incredible birth story that ultimately inspired her career path, as well as passes along 5 tried-and-true tips for How To Help A New Mom.

Cleo Wade: The Best-Selling Author on the Undeniable Link Between Motherhood and Personhood, Finding Strength in Community, and the Power of Children’s Books

Monday, July 8, 2024 • Duration 46:40

Today’s guest is Cleo Wade, the best-selling author and poet whose work explores hope, resilience, and the power of love. Her books include Heart Talk, Where To Begin, Remember Love, and two children’s books: What The Road Said, and her brand-new kid-lit title—which she both wrote and illustrated—May You Love and Be Loved: Wishes for Your Life.

In addition to her books, Cleo has also created public art installations across the country, and works closely with several nonprofits that support women and girls.

What we find so inspiring about Cleo is how she is committed to comforting and uplifting people in their toughest times. She uses her standing as a mega-influencer for good—instead of just for vanity—which is a true rarity these days.

In today’s conversation, Cleo talks to us about her upbringing, where she motivates from, juggling parenthood alongside a robust career, her latest book, how the strength of one’s motherhood and strength of one’s personhood are undeniably linked—and so much more.

Mara Hoffman: The Fashion Designer on New Beginnings, Leaning into Motherhood, Her Spiritual Practices, and Cultivating Self-Love

Wednesday, June 19, 2024 • Duration 55:57

Mara Hoffman knew she wanted to be a fashion designer at only 8-years-old. After graduating from Parsons in 2000, her one-of-a-kind pieces soon caught the attention of legendary costume designer Patricia Field and stylists for budding artists Britney Spears, J.Lo, and Christina Aguilera. Then, 15 years into her thriving business—when her label was synonymous with brightly colored, graphic-print swimwear and garments—Mara decided to pivot her entire model to be a more sustainable one. A move that was inspired by her young son, Joaquin, and envisioning the world he would inherit.

In May 2024, she made the industry-rattling announcement that she’s taking a break from the fashion industry and putting a pause on her beloved label. In our conversation, Mara provides more context on her new move—and why it’s so important for her to lean into parenting right now.

We talk about the importance of honoring not only the birth of things, but the death of things—which is made even more poignant after hearing Mara’s harrowing birth story, which includes losing one of her twin boys. We also talk about cultivating self-love, parenting a teen, and so much more.

*Trigger Warning: This episode includes an intimate story about infant and pregnancy loss, which may be triggering to some listeners.
