from PODCASTS EXTREME® Daily with Vida Macura Maglica - Extreme Training® · host Vida Macura Maglica
Does your chest tighten too the second the school or kindergarten calls? Because you don’t think: “Who’s calling?” You think: “Is my child okay?” And then another question comes up. The one almost nobody ever talks about: If a child gets sick… who do they call? Mom. In this episode, we talk about the invisible responsibility that so many women still carry today. About why, when a child gets sick, there’s a problem at school, forgotten equipment, or an emergency, the system almost always calls the mother first. And what that really says about equality, motherhood, and the “second shift” women live every single day. If you’ve ever felt like: ✨ you always have to be available ✨ you’re the one who has to fix everything ✨ you never truly switch off ✨ you’re carrying invisible 24/7 on-call duty ✨ responsibility for the child still falls on you by default most of the time …then this episode is for you.
