Travels With My Daughter: An Experience of Motherhood

Have you ever found yourself, without even realising you'd been lost? From mountain-top Buddhist retreats to Ayahuasca tea parties, alongside a vigorous commitment to exploring myriad therapeutic options that offered a pathway back to herself, Laura Fraser has spent the better part of the last 23 years trying to better understand how she might learn to one day, finally, truly, trust herself. Yet despite years of therapy, meditation, yoga and travels all over the world, in the end she found her greatest inspiration where she'd least expected it: in motherhood. Single motherhood. As Laura navigates the path of a lone parent, she learns not only how to mother her daughter, Eve, but also herself; discovering that motherhood is not a place where we become lost, but is instead a conduit to rediscover who we truly are. The sleepless nights and endless days, the joys of each step forward and lows of each step back; all are beautifully rendered here, as Laura reconnects to part of herself that, amidst the chaos of life, she'd forgotten existed. This is a grown-up, thought-out answer for anyone navigating early parenthood, whilst trying to create a beautiful childhood for their children amidst turbulence that can feel as if it has the power to threaten exactly that. It's a book for those who would like to be reconnect to precious memories, and for all those mothers trying to remember the beauty, resilience and potential in their own hearts.It's a book about finding the truth of self amidst the mundane, magical and intimate moments that make up motherhood. It's about the relationships we nurture, ignore, appreciate, misunderstand or damage with those who are most important to us. Finally, it's a book about the relationship we have with ourselves. Funny, occasionally dark, serene, sometimes angry, but always spiritual and genuine, Travels With My Daughter is a meditative and incisive series of snapshots of the magical moments in our lives that are too often overlooked. It's a book for those immersed in motherhood, struggling in a new relationship, or simply yearning to be reminded of what they already know.
