The Medz Mamas Podcast
Celebrating Armenian Grandmothers!
TheMedzMamas™ is a place to honor and celebrate our beautiful Armenian grandmothers, all across the globe.
TheMedzMamas was established in late 2020 in order to celebrate and honor the lives, stories, and perspectives of Armenian grandmothers.
TheMedzMamas aims to amplify the voices of Armenian women, with a focus on this particular generation of women.
While we are specifically featuring Armenian grandmothers worldwide, the collection of stories can be enjoyed by anyone universally. We serve to be a multi-generational experience that teaches the value of our unique Armenian grandmotherhood experience, within the fabric of our collective humanity.
