Mother Is a Verb

By Kim Hooper

In this bold and provocative exploration of modern motherhood, three women cross paths on the road to self-discovery, grappling with the uncertainty of whether they can accept what they find.

Gwen Fisher is suffering from postpartum stress. Angeni Luna is thriving in her social media enterprise. Sasha Robinson is grieving over the loss of her sister. All three are looking for something they can't quite name: connection, validation, closure...any sign that they're doing something right.

They just might find it on Bainbridge Island.

There, Angeni runs her "momfluencer" commune with its focus on staying present through all the noise. She has plenty of her own that she's learned to quiet down over the years. Now she's offering that same peace to anyone in search of it.

And maybe that's what Gwen and Sasha need. Peace. But how do you get something from someone who hasn't truly given it to themselves?

As they begin tapping into the truth of who they really are, they'll discover what that means to the people who know and love them--and to those who only think they do...
