Community, Parenthood & Change - Candid Contributions

What this episode covers

In this episode we get personal about what it means to be part of open source and tech communities while navigating major life changes. From returning to work after maternity leave and balancing "mum guilt", to speaking at conferences while seven months pregnant, we explore the realities of contributing through parenthood. We also discuss how brain changes in motherhood can affect our work, how ageing shapes the way we give back, and why normalising conversations about menopause at work matters. Candid, honest, and full of lived experience - this episode shines a light on the evolving nature of contribution and community.
