The Perfect Cupcake: A Momoir

De: Lynn Bodnar

Narrado por: Lynn Bodnar, Donna Cuddemi, Jake Cuddemi

Don’t panic...but sometimes vasectomies grow back! Even after five and a half carefree years. And you know what that means... a very unexpected “bonus baby”. What would you do?

When author Lynn Bodnar found herself pregnant at the ghastly “advanced maternal age” of 43, she began the eye-opening process of starting motherhood from ground zero all over again, rewatching the movie of motherhood and catching so much more.

You will laugh, cry, cringe, relate, laugh some more, and find practical ideas from her process of transformation, breaking free from the cultural expectations of modern day moms.

Realizing she was stuck in her mindset, stifled by expectations and subjected to mom-shaming, she journeyed to the other side of it all. By peeling back the illusions of perfection, being “not enough”, and just a mom - she questioned all of the demands around the role of motherhood.

The Perfect Cupcake, a Momoir is a true-life story that is better than fiction. Best of all, Lynn doesn’t just share her breakthroughs and process of transformation, she opens up her heart about what lead her back to authentic "momming".

Give a listen today for laughs, head nods, and a-has - like “motherhood doesn’t define me, but instead refines me”. (Lynn Bodnar)

A Story Well Told

Lynn Bodnar is a gifted story teller. In The Perfect Cupcake: A Momoir, Bodnar shares the story of her "bonus baby" with both humor and wisdom. This inspirational book made me laugh, cry, and think.

In the audio version of this book, Bodnar’s voice is delightful to listen to and the additional voices of Donna and Jake Cuddemi were entertaining and engaging.

Lynn is the GOAT

"The Perfect Cupcake: A Momoir" By Lynn Bodnar is a must read for anyone who is; a mother, an expecting mother, or has had a mother. The insight gained from listening to Lynn's experiences through motherhood, and becoming pregnant in her 40's, is something that I think anyone can find value in. Personally, I found it very informative and I appreciated hearing about how what you say can affect someone who finds themselves in uncharted territory, and that even when you mean well your ignorance may be hurtful. Lynn's story was very inspiring and I loved every second of this Audiobook. Lynn did a wonderful job with the narration and hearing her tell her own story made it just that much better. This book is definitely in my top five non-fiction books of all time.
