RMC 20 Raising boys and the woman within with Kate Okello Tarrant

About this episode
This is one of those conversations that doesn’t really end, it just stays with you.
Today I’m joined by Kate Okello Tarrant (aka Mrs. OT): a mother of three boys, whose words carry a poetic kind of honesty. The kind that doesn’t try to fix or perform, but simply tells the truth of what motherhood and womanhood actually feel like from the inside.
We explore the identity shift that comes with becoming a mother: the ongoing process of meeting yourself again and again in new forms, in new seasons of matrescence.
And we also go deep into what it really means to raise boys in today’s world. The tenderness, the responsibility, the questions around masculinity, and the awareness it asks of us as mothers.
We speak about:
how motherhood changes you in ways you don’t expect
the evolution from one child to two… to three
the reality of raising boys beyond the surface-level narratives
masculinity, role models, and what we’re navigating as parents today
what it means to mother as a Projector in a world that often expects constant output
unlearning, questioning, and evolving as a mother
Being a Projector in motherhood and honouring your energy
the woman you are becoming through it all
