Motherhood, Margaritas, & Montana Jack

In this episode, Astrida Curis and I take a deep dive into working in dentistry while navigating motherhood with new borns. Many dental hygienists wonder how they will be able to pump for their babies at work in the midst of seeing patients. Some offices are not supportive or understanding of the importance or dynamics of being a new caregiver. A supportive work culture effects the employee as they have changes throughout their life. Self advocacy and effective communication is key to bridging this gap. At times the conversation may be uncomfortable, yet it is a necessary one to have with our employers.Listen in as we also discuss the value of mentorship in all stages in our career to have the most successful outcome and reduce our risks for burnout and feelings of isolation.You can find Astrida Curis at:Instagram: newgrad_rdh , the_traveling_rdhPodcast: new grad RDH PodcastFacebook: New Grad RDH, Astrida C TravelingrdhLinkedIn: Astrida CurisRDH Connect: Astrida C RDH
