Motherhood & Cultural Identity: A conversation on raising children with intention, culture, and connection. And what it really means to pass down your Greek identity.

This month on the Koukles Podcast, Patricia sits down with Julie Karatzis of Cartoules Press for a heartfelt conversation on motherhood, cultural identity, and raising children with intention, connection, and pride in their roots.

From living as a Greek in California to creating products inspired by her own experiences and heritage, Julie shares how culture, family, and creativity shape both her motherhood journey and the stories behind Cartoules Press. Together, they reflect on what it means to pass down Greek identity to the next generation — and the small, meaningful ways culture lives on through everyday life.
