Inspiring but affluent
I enjoy this podcast and no woman should be apologetic for their success. But I do find often their life hacks hinge upon hired help. House cleaners. Nannies. Au paires. House managers. These are wonderful luxuries that are unattainable for the average working woman, as many of us struggle just to afford traditional center or home-based childcare. This is just something to be aware of but does not prevent me from enjoying their content. Sometimes I philosophize that back in the day, historically it seemed the only way for women to live fulfilling lives as their own person was to either be childless or without a husband, or to have enslaved people or paid servants doing all the essential tasks. It’s remarkable that even with all our technology, there is still a significant class divide in how women can get the most out of life. Not the fault of these successful women who have worked hard to get where they are. It’s just something this podcast triggers for me, as a middle class working mom. If you are a working class mom with limited or no paid leave in a job rather than an inspiring career, this podcast may not feel good to listen to.

I’m loving the Best of Both Worlds podcast. It’s very relaxed and gives a great insight into how two highly intelligent, high achieving women make it all work. Love that they’re in different stages and often have different approaches to things. Lots of simple but great ideas that I’m implementing...Read full review »
