“Motherhood demands pieces of yourself, Hannah would say. Your body, your solitude, at worst your mental health. All that giving and giving and giving away can come at a cost, and one morning you might wake up to realize you’ve lost yourself and can no longer mother at all. Then, Hannah would tell her dear grown-up daughter, you must make a different kind of sacrifice, by letting go of being the giver and the caretaker, and learning to ask for help.”
