About

At the Good Mother Project, we believe in the importance of storytelling. Your story is important, no matter how big or how small it may feel, and we believe that through sharing it, you can find community and support. One of the trickiest things about being a mother (and especially a new mother) is how isolating it can feel. You see other moms around you, kicking butt & taking names, and it feels like the struggles you are encountering aren’t normal. You wonder why other women seem to have their shit together, while you can barely take a shower. You feel like you are failing left, right and centre, but the truth is, We are all in this motherhood thing together That’s why the Good Mother Project wants to hear your story! If you are a writer or blogger (or even an aspiring writer or blogger), and you have an encouraging, uplifting, inspiring, funny or touching story about your experience as a mother, we want to hear it!
