E24: Paid Family Leave and Other Changes and Imperatives Working Parents and Caregivers Need to Know About with Lauren Smith Brody Mighty As A Mother

In today’s critically important episode, we’re talking all things gender equity and working parenthood with 
Lauren Smith Brody. Fellow mom, gender equity advocate, and former Executive Editor at Glamour Magazine sits down with us to discuss the crisis facing working parents and caregivers today - and what’s needed to advance women’s leadership and overall economic growth. 
 
Lauren shares her own experiences as a working mother and interviews with other women to offer practical tips, anecdotes, and guidance on navigating the professional and personal aspects of life after childbirth. Lauren’s work has been featured in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, and on Good Morning America and we know you’ll love this episode regardless of where you are on your motherhood journey!
 
By the end of our conversation, you’ll learn how we as mothers can successfully navigate our own careers (whatever that looks like for you) and the actions we can (and should) take to challenge the status quo.
