    When we're forced to look at our parents as people, often flawed people, there are usually things about them we must...reckon with. I've done a lot of reckoning over the years about my parents, mostly in an effort to find reasons why they did what they did, made the choices they made, and behaved as they behaved – and about how all of that went into who I am as a person. All that thinking about my parents finally lead me to place of understanding, sympathy and ultimately forgiveness. These thoughts about my parents are incredibly personal, but I think still universal. I hope you take away from this podcast thoughts of your own parents, and how they helped shape you and your life.Please remember to Subscribe, Favorite or Follow MOJO GIRL MADNESS so you don't miss an episode – and share the show with friends who may need a little mojo in their world!Send questions, comments and suggestions to Mojo Girl at IAmMojoGirl@gmail.comCheck out all things Mojo at MojoGirlmadness.comYour Host: Katy Garretson, AKA Mojo Girl.Your Producer: Jackie MacDougall, AKA A Parental MojoMojo Girl Madness is a product of Mojo Girl Productions, Inc.
