TERESA PALMER on balancing motherhood & Hollywood

Teresa Palmer is like the Hannah Montana of Hollywood... she has an amazing acting career but splits her time between LA and Australia so she can give her kids more of a "normal" childhood.
You're going to love this chat in episode three of How Motherhood Changed Me, where we learn how Teresa juggles it all, what she's discovered about herself since becoming a mum, and what worries her about modern day parenting. Spoiler alert: she has the same concerns as the rest of us!
How Motherhood Changed Me is hosted by journalists Kerrie Turner & Jenna Yates.
It is brought to you by ⁠⁠Harrison McMillan⁠⁠, Australia's leading recruitment firm run by women who live by values that make their mothers proud - www.harrisonmcmillan.com.au

Teresa seems to be such a genuine and loving person. Her pregnancy vlogs were my go-to videos when I was pregnant and feeling anxious over being obligated to rest. Loved this talk.

A cosmology of motherhood
1. the general cosmos and its 'masculine' relation to its special, 'feminine' Earth.
2. The Earth, as its own general subject, and its 'masculine' relation to its own 'feminine' substance: its abiding maximal abundance of open liquid water.
3. that water, in general, and its 'masculine' relation to the Sun's light, hence the special, 'feminine' water cycle.
4. The water cycle, in general, and its 'masculine' relation to its special, 'feminine' beneficiary class: biological life.
5. biological life, in general, and its 'masculine' relation to its special, 'feminine' category, animal biology (plant/animal/mineral = animal).
6. Animal biology, in general, and its 'masculine' relation to its special, 'feminine' category: human.
7. The general human, and its 'masculine' relation to its special, 'feminine' category: Woman.
One mirror can make a small enclosed space seem bigger.
Two mirrors, opposite each other, can make the space seem infinitely bigger. In one way, it is infinitely bigger. Like the cosmos itself, motherhood is that second mirror.

Too much time on your hands.

@@evilsimeon not sure if you're just being funny.
Imagine we had no experience of any world like the ecological Earth. Imagine we did not know what is a dew-touched field of grass in the morning. Or 'night', 'daytime', or 'morning'. No sunsets. No plants or animals. No 'starry nights' as seen from the grass of such a world. Instead, all we knew were things such as 'hot balls of fire' seen from inside a Star Trek-like star ship. No misty mornings seeing rays of the Sun shining between the trees.
We could, of course, have all the 'synthesized' food we could want. But that would be only by way of the toil and expertise of maintaining such 'glorious' technology.
We would not have free air, free gravity, or free atmospheric pressure. Nor could we say, 'My darling, your eyes sparkle like dew in the morning'. And there would be no romance in likening our lover to a moon. We also could not let any of the ship's systems of life support go untended, lest we die, or, at least, deeply suffer until we got it working well again.
Could we even be properly human? We would not know of clouds, rain, or peaceful sea coasts. Instead, we would be oppressed by mere bulkheads, and the ever-need to maintain energy shield generators against cosmic radiation. What a un-beautiful life it would be.
If fact, for not having ever known of a living world, what hope could we feel? Too, if someone were to tell us of such a world, how could we believe him? It would just be too fantastical, and too strange.
In actually knowing of such a world, we think we objectively imagine that a Star Trek-like space ship is rather glorious. But, in fact, in its own terms, it is a hunk of junk.
So, now, imagine our ship has automatically taken us to the Earth, and lets us out onto it. I think we would be far, far more awestruck at that than we could ever be by suddenly having a USS Enterprise. And, we would be awestruck every moment of every day for the rest of our lives.
I was am inspired to write this, about four months ago, because of this girl:
