Care & Feeding: Mom Guilt Is Real, but So Is Healing

On this episode: we present two very special segments celebrating
the lifelong journey of being a mom.  First up: Dr. Lindsay
Cavanagh is back for mini therapy sessions with Jamilah, Lucy and
Elizabeth — who each share a nagging guilt they have about being a
mom (and a daughter).  Then: Zak, our resident dad, sit down
with Luisa, mother of our very own Lucy Lopez. The two talk about
maternal instincts, growing up in Cuba, and having faith in the
competence of your kids… and yourself.  Join us on Facebook
