Jennifer Goodtracks is a member of the Southern Ute Tribe. She sat down with her daughter, Brianna Goodtracks-Alires, for some stories, advice on motherhood–including why cradleboards work so well for babies. We love the warmth and ease Jennifer and Brianna have with one another in this conversation.
