Jada and Willow Smith

Willow Smith is authentic as it gets for a young tween coping with hormones, success, mommy-time and fame.

In the latest episode of Red Table Talk – Willow breaks down, expresses why she needs her mommy and the importance of communication. Wow!

This episode really gets to core of the struggle for many busy moms (including self) on why we sacrifice our careers for a moment to really “show up for our babies.”

The sad truth is that no matter how much you give — it’s really about COMMUNICATING to our children about choices and the (sad) reality that moms are not SUPER HUMANS.

Watch the full episode and see a young Willow crying out for mommy-time. Deepness!
