TWO TRUTHS

Introducing Two Truths — a newsletter created by journalists Cassie Shortsleeve and Kelsey Lucas, dedicated to celebrating and examining the complexities of motherhood. What unfolds when two parenting journalists, who happen to be strangers, give birth around the same time (and continue to have more children simultaneously), connect through the internet, and navigate the challenges of early motherhood together? They decide to launch a newsletter. This is that newsletter. Two Truths dives into the intriguing, multifaceted, and often misinterpreted yet universally relatable theme of duality in motherhood.
