You’ve celebrated it every year. Maybe with flowers, maybe with brunch, maybe with a phone call filled with love and guilt. But Mother’s Day didn’t begin with cards and chocolate.
In this episode of The Conant Code, we uncover the forgotten origin of Mother’s Day—a story rooted in grief, activism, and a daughter’s promise to honor her mother’s legacy. But what began as a solemn tribute was quickly transformed by corporate interests into one of the most profitable holidays of the year.
It’s a tale of good intentions, powerful marketing, and what happens when meaning gets lost in the margins of a price tag.
This one might just change how you celebrate.
