Whether you're a regular listener or this is your first time, let's get into today's amazing episode.
I've sat down with Dr. Anne Welsh, a clinical psychologist, executive coach, and mum of four, who spends her days helping working mothers and women in leadership actually enjoy the lives they've worked so hard to build.
In this conversation, we get into why the escalation of modern motherhood means we're being asked to do more than any generation before us, why the mental load isn't just about remembering appointments.
And it's about quality over quantity when it comes to time with your kids.
Anne also walks us through a simple exercise to help you figure out who you are now that you're a mum and why naming what you actually want is one of the most radical things you can do.
If you've ever felt like you have to choose between being a good mum and having a real career, this episode is your permission slip.
Let's get into it with Anne.
Welcome, Anne, to the Working Mama podcast.
How has your day been?
Because I know we're recording this.
You're in America.
I'm in Australia.
Right.
So, Anne, you've got four boys.
You're a psychologist.
Do you want to tell us a little bit about yourself?
Yeah, so good.
Now, can you take me back to a moment either in your own life or when you've been sitting with a client where you thought something is fundamentally broken with the way that we talk about motherhood and ambition?
And so why do you think there is such difference between the way that your mom had it and the way that we had it?
By the sounds of it, she had a great system around her.
