Hi Mama, 

Wanna hear a joke? Maternity leave in the US. This topic fires me up like no other so today I wanted to express my feelings on the topic and outline how the lack of a federal maternity leave policy in the US has left me scrambling to figure out how to be the mother I want to be and still be "productive" in this society. 

It's a huge struggle and I get real and raw with you (of course) about my issues with the current lack of policy. 

In this episode I talk about...

1. How the currently "maternity leave" (of lack thereof) is disrespectful to women in the US (I say women because I'm sure there are some woman who are choosing not to become mothers because of this!)

2. My current situation and how the current maternity leave structure is affecting my family planning choices.

3. More about the hustle of motherhood

4. My daily schedule as a SAHM who hustles hard!

I hope that you found this episode interesting. I could honestly go on about this topic forever because there's so much to unpack. I really hope things will change soon for women in the US.

Hi Mama, 

Guess what: Stay-at-home-mom is a full time job! Read that again. And again and again. 

Today I'm talking about a topic sent in by listener My. She said, "I would be interested in hearing more about how you decided to be a SAHM and if you dealt with any perceived/real judgements/assumptions about your decision and how it relates to your personal career goals". 

In this episode I cover...

1. How I decided to be a SAHM 

2. How the hustle has become the norm for SAHMs

3. My career goals now that life has changed 

4. A little encouragement for you

Hi Mama, 

After sharing a pandemic related episode I got a question from listener Sarah. She asks, "What do you do if you have a baby that's not vaccinated but you also have family members who refuse to get the vaccine? I have family members who don't believe COVID is real and don't believe that kids can get it, so they don't want to get the vaccine. However, it's making a strain in our family. What do you do?" 

This is something that I personally deal with so today I am sharing my experience and my little piece of advice on this topic. Simply put: my child, my choice!! You are that boss, mama!! This is for all scenarios, not even just covid related but everything. Your child, your choice!! Say it again! 

Thank you to everyone who has left a rating or review of the show so far! You can leave a rating on Apple by going to the show and scrolling all the way to the bottom. I can't wait to read your review in an upcoming episode.

Stay safe and well, mama!

Hi Mama, 

Becoming a parent during the pandemic has been hard, scary, isolating, traumatic, and very very sad. I feel that at my core. But today I wanted to share the positive side of becoming a parent during the pandemic. I know that as I record this that everyone's situation was different and unique, and you might not have the same experience as me, but I hope that one of these positive points resonates with you. What we had to do was "unprecedented"... yup, I'm sick of that term too, but it's true! I know the pandemic isn't over, but I am optimistic that brighter days are coming. If we can get through this, we can do anything!

If you want to share your personal experience, send me a message on Instagram @motheroffawn or an email to audrey@motheroffawn.com. I would love to hear what the most positive part of becoming a parent during the pandemic has been for you! 

Stay safe and well, mama.
