After becoming a mom in 2017 and returning to my (awesome) day job, I felt like there wasn't support, resources or information for me and my new normal. I was looking for real women who were dedicated to their families but were goal-getters, striving for more in their careers, to talk about how they work toward balancing their responsibilities while prioritizing their families. I wanted comic relief- but had enough with the "wine mom" memes. I also wanted to hear how women like me were moving up the ranks at work, while not sacrificing precious time with their kids and spouse. So, I created one- the After Daycare Drop Off podcast. You can find it wherever you get your podcasts and on Instagram, at @AfterDaycareDropOff . Here, I interview driven, working moms about their lives, goals, families and how they're making it work. If you're a working mom, please listen and let me know what you think by rating the show and leaving a comment. And if you really want to get wild, send me a note and let me know if you'd be interested in being interviewed! I'd love to hear your perspective.
