What happens when you revisit your childhood with adult eyes—and a mother’s heart? In this emotional and revealing episode, Amy Daughters reflects on how writing her time-travel memoir You Cannot Mess This Up helped her unlock long-buried family dynamics and generational truths.
As Amy explores her past, she begins to see her mother in a new light—not just as a parent, but as a woman shaped by her era, her choices, and the expectations placed upon her. “We just assumed she was happy,” Amy shares, “but maybe that wasn’t the life she wanted. No one ever asked.” Through this reflective lens, Amy discusses how unspoken realities shape families, how each generation gets a little braver about breaking the mold, and how healing often begins by acknowledging what was never said aloud.
Whether you're a parent, a child of the '70s, or someone reckoning with family secrets of your own—this conversation is for you.
