“Balancing” work and motherhood in my 30s (SOLO episode)

After watching a YouTube video by Suzanne Vanker titled "30-Something Women Are Having an Identity Crisis," I had so many thoughts I wanted to share on the challenges women face in balancing careers and motherhood. Suzanne's views, which advocate for women stepping back from work while their children are young, sparked some deep conversations with Michael and led me to explore the importance of choice and the varied experiences of modern working parents, especially mothers. In this episode, I get into how I manage to be a present mother and a passionate business owner and how difficult it can be to find balance while carrying a heavy mental load.
