About this listen

The CEOs behind Sesame Street bring you the inspirational and life-changing lessons and parenting insights that successful people learned from their moms.

The first and most important teacher in life is mom. Her lessons start in early childhood and last a lifetime. Behind many successful people is a mother who gave her child the example, the insights, and the drive that helped them live their extraordinary life and become a better parent themselves.

In this inspiring book, the past and present CEOs of Sesame Workshop, the producer of Sesame Street, capture the stories and love these remarkable people have for their own mothers and how this shaped their lives. This book is a love letter to mothers everywhere.

Learn how Al Roker, Ali Wentworth, Anna Cathcart, Chelsea Clinton, Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Clarissa Ward, Danny Meyer, Darren Walker, Diane von Furstenberg, Henry Louis Gates Jr., Hoda Kotb, Kaia Gerber, Katie Couric, Ken Burns, Kevin Nealon, Laura Jarrett, Ms. Rachel, Noah Kahan, Robin Roberts, Soledad O’Brien, Steve Guttenberg, Susan Wojcicki, Tatyana McFadden, Téa Leoni, Tory Burch, and Governor Wes Moore found their lives shaped by the lessons they learned from their mom.
