Pushing back against a system which feels designed to keep parents isolated and exhausted, Latched Mama founder, Melissa Wirt shows moms how to build a supportive village to bring joy and connection back to motherhood.Melissa Wirt thought she had everythingshed built her own company and lived on a beautiful farm with her family. Then, during a time of difficulty, she began shutting down. Her pain came with a realization: shed become utterly isolated. Despite having created an online community reaching over one million moms, she still felt adrift. Upon closer investigation, however, she saw she was not alone: moms are overwhelmed, exhausted, and in many cases, terribly lonely.It may be that our culture and government have dropped the ball in supporting us, but in that vacuum exists a resource within reach: each other. In I Was Told Thered be a Village, Melissa describes how she began making small changesleaving behind a damaging Isolation mindset and adopting a Village mindset. Using personal anecdotes and stories from moms across the country, her book provides specific, actionable steps to transform oppressive, solitary parenting into a connected, collective (even joyful) endeavor. Motherhood can and should come with emotional support, and this book shows how to find thatby building back the community weve lost and joining one another along the way.
