Youngmi Mayer - The Comedian and Author on Her New Memoir, Raising a Son in a Misogynistic World, & Conquering Her Fears to Work in Comedy
Today’s guest is comedian, podcaster, and writer Youngmi Mayer.Youngmi is one of the very first people we profiled on MOTHER 10 years ago, back when she—and her ex-husband Danny Bowien—were food world darlings thanks to their restaurant, Mission Chinese Food.It wasn’t until several years after becoming a mother that Youngmi finally vocalized the goal she’d had since she was a kid—and was too embarrassed to say out loud—she wanted to be a stand-up comedian. She chronicles this experience—as well as the rise and fall of Mission Chinese—in her brand-new memoir, I’m Laughing Because I’m Crying.The bulk of the book covers her personal history of being raised in Korea by a Korean mother and American father, as well as the powerful stories of the many ancestors that came before her. As the title suggests, the book is at times funny and deeply emotional, as it touches on issues of colonialism, abuse, love, death, motherhood, and generational trauma.In today’s conversation, we talk to Youngmi about what she’s happily inherited from her own parents, her big breaks in comedy, raising a tween son in a world steeped in misogyny, and her ultimate goal of being relatable. You can follow Youngmi at @ymmayer on Instagram.Today’s episode is brought to you by three mom-owned brands we love—Tubby Todd, Minted, and Ritual.

Ingrid Silva - The Boundary-Breaking Ballerina on Changing The Dance World, Finding Strength In Motherhood, And The Power of Community
Today’s guest is Ingrid Silva, the Harlem-based ballerina who was born in Rio de Janeiro, and began dancing at 8-years-old, after a neighbor fatefully told her mother about a nearby dance class.Noted for her natural talent from the very start, Ingrid ended up dancing for the next 10 years before moving to New York at 18 after being awarded a scholarship to the Dance Theatre of Harlem’s summer program. Despite not knowing any English when she arrived, and wrestling her own doubts and criticism, Ingrid has gone on to receive countless accolades in the dance world. This includes having her hand-painted pointe shoes exhibited at the Smithsonian. She’s also helped create a series of community-building organizations, including podHER and Blacks in Ballet.Through motherhood, Ingrid has found newfound strength and fame—she’s gone on to create a new community—Dancers & Motherhood—alongside 3 fellow dancers, and appeared on the cover of Vogue Brasil in all of her pregnant glory—which is when we first discovered her nearly four years ago.In today’s conversation, we talk to Ingrid about her incredible career journey, her mother’s undying belief in her, how she found pride in her Blackness after moving to the U.S., and her ultimate goal of changing the dance world—for the better.Be sure to follow Ingrid at @ingridsilvaToday’s episode is brought to you by three mom-owned brands we love—Tubby Todd, Minted, and Ritual.
