Motherhood – The Shift Within (ep 65)
With Mothers Day around the corner, today we are talking about the shift within that occurs when you become a mother.
Professional women with children have become world class circus performers – skilled in the art of juggling more than a hundred things at once. They are constantly battling mummy guilt, struggling with the mental load, searching for the elusive “work/life balance”, and feel like a fraud when asked “How do you do it all?” For all that – they wouldn’t have it any other way. The fear of dropping a ball every now and then is worth it for the joys of the juggle.
Join Jo Alilovic, employment lawyer, business owner, employer of flexible workers, mother of three and her co-host Lucy Dickens, senior associate and mother of two and their guests as they share insights and advice from everyday jugglers, employers and thought leaders to help professional women have a satisfying career and a fulfilling family life.
