A Lark and her Momster
A Lark and her Momster is an informational yet fun podcast that dives into the depths of mother/daughter relationships… the highs and lows, nature vs nurture, hormones, healthy boundaries, and the importance of loving one another through it all… or not?! The podcast is hosted by Larkin Galeas and her “mom-ster” Susan.
Each episode will focus on topics most moms and daughters deal with throughout their relationships. From birth to adulthood the joys and the struggles are real. Episodes are live, unedited, and will occasionally include guest moms and/or daughters who’ll share their stories. Plus we'll feature a different wine (under $20/bottle) to make the episodes even more fun!

Ep. 7 You're not fat...and neither am I!!!
Featuring: Longevity Blanc de Blanc, Methodé Champinoise - it’s a lifestyle all about loving what you live and living what you love; it’s about the experience and living, loving, sharing the experience with others. Grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness with low sugar and high acid and the nose detests yeasty bread, along with green apples and crisp citrus notes through the many tiny bubbles.
Body image is a struggle for many and this episode touches on the intergenerational messages that can impact children’s self awareness around their bodies. Lark and her Momster delve into their own histories with body image, negative comments, peer comments, and the research that demonstrates just how unhealthy this messaging can be even for children as young as 2 years old. Momster shared about a CNN video featuring a fashion historian discussing how mannequins shapes morph to meet cultural and fashion norms and research that emphasizes the importance of parents focusing health rather than body size. Links to the video and research are in the show notes.
