Announcements: New feminist merchandise, the podcast, a way to fund scholarships, Patreon, and more!
You're about to have access to a whole bunch more Liberating Motherhood stuff.
It’s all finally here (or coming)! The merchandise and podcast I’ve been promising, and more.
Here’s where you can find everything:
Liberating Motherhood merchandise
You can now buy stickers, tote bags, and more to support my work and advertise your feminist beliefs. Or buy a low value man sticker for the special guy in your life. Whatever makes you happy.
It’s all available on Tee Public.
Or, if you want to subscribe and get merchandise, you can head on over to my Patreon (more about that below).
Unfortunately, Tee Public genders the sizing and some of the cuts on t-shirts, but if you ignore the gender labels and pick what you want, there is a diversity of options (the main reason I picked this vendor). Be sure to check the drop-down menus to see all options!
The podcast (yes, really for real life!)
I will be releasing the very first episode of the Liberating Motherhood podcast on March 20th.
The first episode is a reader AMA with my husband and me, featuring questions folks posed a few months back. This is a sort of pilot episode, so is a bit more meandering and personal than subsequent episodes will be. This episode will be available here on Substack, as well as on Patreon, to paid subscribers only because it is a sort of bonus episode.
The next episode of the podcast—the official first episode—will be available to everyone two weeks later on April 1. Thereafter, I will release an episode at least monthly. Those episodes will be available, for free, here on Substack and on Patreon, as well as on all the usual podcast platforms (I’ll release a comprehensive list when I release the podcast). I will also occasionally have bonus episodes for paid subscribers.
Patreon, scholarships, and alternatives to Substack
If you don’t want to pay for a Substack newsletter, but still want all the benefits of a paid subscriber, I have a new option available for you: Patreon. For the same price as a membership here, you can purchase a membership on Patreon, and get my content in your feed over there, as well as access to the Liberating Motherhood community.
Additionally, I am offering other membership tiers. These tiers allow you to lend additional support to my work, and critically, to help fund scholarships for people who cannot afford them. Even if you already subscribe over here, consider subscribing on Patreon to fund scholarships. Most excitingly, though, people who subscribe at the higher tiers will get various types of Liberating Motherhood merchandise that is not available anywhere else.
You can find the Liberating Motherhood Patreon page here.
I’ve started posting some older content to Patreon, and all new content will be there beginning tomorrow.
Finally, an important note about scholarships. I routinely give scholarships in the form of a one year paid trial. This means many of you may find that your scholarship has expired, or is about to. If this is the case for you, and you still cannot afford a membership, please email me! I am happy to renew you for another year!
Yuuss!! What will the podcast be called? :)
But where's the podcast?! 😭 I've been impatiently waiting for it 😃
