#343 - The Impact of Working Moms on Daughters

With Mother's Day in a week, I decided that for the next two weeks I'm going to talk about the impact of working moms on daughters and on sons.  This week I'm just focusing on daughters, but if you don't have a daughter, I would still listen in because, let's face it, you are a daughter and you never know what you might discover. And if you have a daughter like I do, I want to talk about something that's probably crossed your mind as a working mom: how your career is impacting your daughter. It's one of those things we think about in the quiet moments, wondering if what we're doing is helping her or holding her back. Maybe you've asked yourself, "Am I showing her the right example?" Or, "Does she feel like I'm not there enough?" These questions can feel heavy because, let's be honest, being a mom comes with its own suitcase of guilt, and working just seems to add more to it. But here's the thing: the impact you're having on your daughter might be more powerful than you realize. It's not just about how many hours you're home or how many soccer practices you make it to—it's about what she's seeing and learning from you every single day. This week, I'm going to discuss how working moms shape ambition and confidence in daughters, and how to balance challenges and build a stronger connection. You can read the full show notes HERE
