After that night, none of us would ever live with mum again.
Imagine growing up in a family that feels more like a nomadic tribe, constantly moving from one couch to another. That’s the backdrop for this episode of 'Mum Says My Memoir Is A Lie', where Rosie Waterland and her mother Lisa dive into the rollercoaster chapter of their lives. This time, they tackle a particularly tumultuous period when Lisa met Pam, a new love interest who changed the dynamics of their already chaotic household.
As Rosie recounts, Pam wasn’t just any friend; she was someone who showered the family with attention and gifts, but it didn’t last. Things took a dramatic turn when Lisa chose Pam over her own children, leaving Rosie and her siblings to fend for themselves. It's a raw, emotional story that highlights the complexities of family bonds and the painful choices that can leave lasting scars.
Rosie and Lisa don't shy away from the tough questions: Did it really happen as Rosie remembers? How does Lisa feel about it now? Their conversation is a mix of painful recollections and surprising insights, offering a window into how different perspectives can shape our understanding of the past. The episode also touches on broader themes like the long-term impact of childhood experiences and the importance of empathy in navigating family trauma.
If you’re looking for a podcast that blends humor with deep emotional honesty, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about setting the record straight; it’s about understanding how our past shapes who we are today.
