On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we are doubly thrilled to welcome sisters Tembi and Attica Locke about their new Netflix series, From Scratch, which is based on Tembi\u2019s New York Times bestselling memoir of the same name. We didn\u2019t think our hearts could be any more full after watching this beautiful, epic story of love and loss, but discussing it with Tembi and Attica brought us to even higher emotional highs!\xa0\nWe chatted with them about how adapting it for the screen made for a deeper exploration of motherhood and mothering in all its complicated glory; how Tembi bearing witness to her grief allows others to be seen, but also translates the full embodiment of grief for those who haven\u2019t walked that path yet; the realistic and mature depiction of love and partnership in the series, going well beyond the \u201cmeet and cute\u201d and giving us the sticky middle of a relationship; how Attica\u2019s intuition guided her choices for the writers room and the collective sisterhood that brought this book to the screen; what a \u201cfrom scratch\u201d moment can look like in all of our lives; and the ways Tembi and Attica\u2019s astrological signs make them the perfect team!\nSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
