The Mothering Myth
Description
In this episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, we talk about pressures on working parents in the workplace. If you’re a working parent, you know how challenging it is to navigate the pressures of advancing your career while being the parent you want to be. Unfortunately, many of us put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be perfect at work and at home. My guest this week is Moe Carrick, a workplace culture expert who is on a mission to make every workplace good for people because when people thrive at work, everybody wins. Here we talk about Moe’s decision to leave corporate America, the impact of the mothering myth and the need for systemic change when it comes to working parents.
