S2E11: REPLAY: Funny Mom? Start Here… This Episode is For YOU.
“You can’t pour from an empty cup”, is a quote our host Linda Schwartz now lives by.
Linda lived this reality when realizing she had abandoned herself and her creative pursuits after diving headfirst into motherhood. However, being a mother and a wife doesn’t mean you stop being you.
This is a fact Linda wants to drive home to you listeners by hearing her journey how she came back to herself to become the comic she is today.
In today’s episode, Linda gives her backstory of becoming a mother and living with guilt and regret only to realize at the age of 40 that she wasn’t fulfilled and wanted to do something about it. She took action toward what she knew was true to her and is now booking shows all over San Diego and LA.
This episode is particularly for all the mothers out there. She wants you to know, you are doing a great job, regardless of what you keep telling yourself, and that you can fulfill your dreams.
It’s actually so important that you do because it can only benefit your family in the long run, because well, you can’t pour from an empty cup, and your family deserves the best version of you. Better yet, you deserve the best version of you.
