    The Super-Mum Vs. Active Children

    The Super-Mum Vs. Active Children

    Ok working moms, we think we can agree that parenting can be exhausting.  When you consider that it's the most important job that we have but have so many other things on our plates, it can be a challenge to try to give it our best all of the time. 
    On this episode, we discuss with a working mom and an entrepreneur to share tips on how to make parenting less exhausting while giving kids exactly what they need.
    We talk about setting expectations, finding child care, asking for help, advocating for ourselves as kids get older, and fun.
    Yes, we believe balance is possible because we believe you can define balance to be whatever you want.
    So if you are a mom who wants to build a career you love whilst raising a family then you should totally listen to this.
