About Helen Roy
Welcome — I’m Helen Roy.
I’m a mother of many with a background in political philosophy and an unkillable creative streak.
This publication is where I bring those worlds together: the daily work of motherhood with broader questions of belief, technology, aesthetics, and civics.
I write to help myself and my readers develop a life of the mind while remaining happily tethered to the real — our homes, our families, our bodies, and our communities.
What You'll Get
You'll get a Monday advice column (CALL YOUR MOM), a Wednesday Cultural Reflection (for paid subscribers), and a Friday livestream.
You'll also join a community of women who like to read and think and argue and laugh.
