In the days leading up to Mother's Day, we've been focusing on mother-daughter relationships.  One of the toughest things that can be faced by a girl or a woman of any age is the loss of her mother. Our guest, Hope Edelman, is an expert in the field of early mother loss and mother-daughter relationships. She's written extensively on those topics and is the author of "Motherless Daughters" and "Motherless Mothers", among others.   You can learn more about Hope on her website: http://hopeedelman.com.   We’re excited to tell you about another great product from our sponsor, Ritual.  It's called Synbiotic+ and it’s a daily 3-in-1 clinically-studied prebiotic, probiotic, and postbiotic designed to help support a balanced gut microbiome.  Ritual’s Synbiotic+ provides two of the world’s most clinically studied probiotic strains to support the relief of mild and occasional digestive discomforts, like bloating, gas, and diarrhea.  Synbiotic+ and Ritual are here to celebrate, not hide, your insides.
