“Mothering doesn’t get easier with age—it is a real job with responsibilities that remain invisible, undervalued, and unsupported by resources essential for mental, emotional, and physical sustainability. I’ve also been shown strengths I didn’t know I had, fears I didn’t know existed, and a fierce love that somehow carries it all.” Mic drop!🫶🏽
Hi Prajna, yes mom of two. Someone who follows my writing about family once asked, "How many kids do you have again?" because the way I write makes it sound like I have sixteen, lol. I find it all so intense while rewarding, just so much jiu-jitsu to parent from actual love while also supporting my needs in a culture that consistently tries to take away the dignity of it all. Anyway, I really enjoyed your interview! Appreciate you right back.

This is a rich and vibrant writing Prajna. Thank you for allowing us to glean from the hard earned treasures of your life and for walking with and alongside a growing number of women who are sick and tired of not belonging to themselves. 💥
Lila, I love your response and encouragement. Thank you for being part of this beautiful wise, powerful sisterhood with all of your artistic gifts and beauty.
Beautiful interview, Prajna. Lots of wisdom and whimsy, here, and what an epic journey to becoming the Salty Crone. Appreciation and goodwill, ~stephanie
Hi Stephanie, thank you for your encouragement and the beautiful wisdom that you bring into my life. Thank you for reading and I’m so happy to get to know you better
I have already read two this morning! I'm in my 60s, a nonbeliever basically, and didn't even know feminist spirituality was a thing. You’re blowing my mind. Thank you.
Although I often feel out of my league reading your writings on the SALTY CRONE, I read it over many times and do my best to grasp your wisdom. Reading your book I cried through many chapters as much as I was awed by your love and strength. I get why you believe in the idea of patriarchy fuckery because I’ve known plenty of that in my life, not as much as you but enough. I just fell into a ring of love and found a man who is like no other and we raised two sons who always treat women as the goddesses of nature that they are and we taught them to believe. However reading you on SubStack has forced me to keep learning and keep my mind open even wider. Thank you for you! I love this interview and your sharing who you are with all of us privileged enough to see it. Thank you to Sari for giving it to us as well. Powerful and inspirational!
Happy to see Prajna featured here, i loved learning more about her. Our life journeys have similarities and we’re similar ages. Prajna, you inspire me to embrace my salty-crone-self!✨
You find the best people for these interviews!
Thanks, Charlotte!!!
Nice to meet you here Charlotte
Thx for reading
Sing it from the rafters: "Aging and menopause are not illnesses."
Yes. Thank you for reading, Lisa. So true.
You're very welcome! It's SO concise, and I haven't heard it put that way before, so thank you!
Hearts to you!
Wonderful that you've featured Prajna today. A really unique and generous woman.
Hi Wendy, thank you for reading. You are always so kind.
❤️
Wonderful insights, Prajna. Some I didn’t already know.
Isn’t that the joy of reading and writing, discovering what we don’t know. I discovered a lot in this process. What a life review. thank you.
What resilience and sunshine! Glad to know you a little more (other than through our Substacks).
Thank you Nancy. Now you know that we also share a birth name, thank you for reading. I really appreciate you.
Thank you - inspiring stuff! And totally agree about Abigail Thomas xo
Hi Sue, thank You For Reading. Yes Abigail is the best and so fun.

Yes! And here’s another mic drop moment:
“Now, soul nourishment comes from choosing to turn away from what doesn’t warm a creative life and from leaning into places that do.”
I’m living by those words from this second onwards!
Thank you Wini.
Thank you for reading Kara. Are you a mom? I appreciate you.

Definitely one of my favorites! I adore Prajna and applaud her work. Definitely need more of her in my life.

Wise crone sister 🌹
This got me thinking about patriarchal and matriarchal spirituality. I need to find out more about this.
Thank you for reading. It’s nice to meet you here Lee. Yes these are huge topics. I wish you the best. I have several essays on my Substack.
I have already read two this morning! I'm in my 60s, a nonbeliever basically, and didn't even know feminist spirituality was a thing. You’re blowing my mind. Thank you.
Oh my that gives me a deep chuckle. I am happy for you. Welcome to the world of women.
So inspiring. Go Prajna! I can’t wait to read the book that is gestating within you now.
Monica, thank you so much for your kindness and these encouraging words. I feel fortified.
