Speaker 2: Now. It is Mother's Day this weekend, and I love
Speaker 2: a lot of things about being a radio host, but

Speaker 3: Need it, or might have gone through a hard time,
Speaker 3: or just make someone.
Speaker 2: Feel good about themselves. And that's what we're doing this
Speaker 2: Mother's Day.
Speaker 3: Well, I also think.
Speaker 1: As well, like I mean, mums are the matriarchs of

Speaker 1: such a I don't want to say it's a thankless job,
Speaker 1: because it's not.
Speaker 3: You get thanked in so many ways the time.
Speaker 1: Often like the people who love you the most sometimes
Speaker 1: forget to tell you how appreciated you are for.
Speaker 3: Everything that you do as a mum.
Speaker 1: And Mother's Day is such an important day for so
Speaker 1: many people for so many different reasons.

Speaker 2: so brave and so resilient, and whenever you see you anywhere,
Speaker 2: no matter who it is or where it is, you

Speaker 2: seems to be it seems to be the thing that
Speaker 2: rolls off people's tongues, right, And I do hope it's
Speaker 2: happy for you, But it's not necessarily a happy day.
Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people go through a lot
Speaker 2: of different things, and a lot of people have lost
Speaker 2: people in their life. And if we can just give

Speaker 3: Try and have the best Mother's Day that you possibly can.
Speaker 3: Your little one is really lucky that much. Thanks.
Speaker 1: I think it's an important one to remember because you know,
Speaker 1: Mother's Day is a celebration for so many people, but
Speaker 1: there are a lot of reasons why it is an
Speaker 1: incredibly hard day for others as well, and not just
Speaker 1: for people who are doing it on their own, but
Speaker 1: for people who maybe don't have the babies in their
Speaker 1: arms that they thought they would on Mother's Day, or
Speaker 1: for whatever version Mother's Day looks like for you. We
Speaker 1: know that it is a wonderfully happy day for some,
Speaker 1: but in order to kind of celebrate that, you also
Speaker 1: have to hold space for all the people that
Speaker 3: Find Sunday a really really challenging day as well.
