1KHO 776: Carry Your Own Bucket Melanie Shankle, Here Be Dragons

Melanie Shankle is one of those writers who can make you laugh on one page and hit something tender that makes you cry on the next, and this conversation with Ginny Yurich on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast goes right there. They talk about motherhood, daughters, mean girls, family pain, what it means to be deeply loved, and how the phrases that get handed down in a family can shape a whole life. It’s funny, sharp, moving, and full of the kind of honesty that makes you feel less alone as a woman and a mom.
