Ginger Calem asked Cheryl Strayed:

How much of your mother is with you as your raise your own children? For instance, do you do the 'How much do I love you?' with your arms wide like your mother did with you?

Cheryl Strayed Hi Ginger,

Yes, I've carried that tradition forward. My mom is with me and in me in every way, but especially in my love for my children.

Best,

Cheryl
