This week we’re sharing our first-ever audio story, ‘A Treasure for My Daughter’, originally published in early 2022 as part of our MILK issue.
Through the lens of her mom’s non-kosher kitchen — and some of her favourite celebratory Jewish foods — editor Isabela reflects on what it means for mothers to sacrifice for their children, and reckons with her narrow early-20s idea of what feminist praxis should and can be.

A transcript of the story is available here.
I liked the episode. The dialogue with the mom really broke my heart. It’s a real dilema, keep working on your career or spend time with your kids, who will find it useless as they grow up.
