Raena Boston + Working Mothers (Paid Leave Advocacy)
Raena Boston is a Co-Founder of Chamber of Mothers, a writer, and a firm believer that “doing it all is a big scam.” This episode covers the topics of motherhood, paid leave, and the challenges faced by working mothers. It delves into the impact of paid leave on the mental health and well-being of mothers, the need for support and advocacy for mothers, and the societal expectations and guilt associated with motherhood. It delves into the need for mothers to push back against these outside world expectations and create space for themselves and their OWN family values. Shouldn’t mothers get a moment to take in a reflection of who they want to be as mothers? Especially, after giving birth to child(ren)? Why doesn’t our society honor such an important role?
