Psychological Safety, Imposter Syndrome, and Shameless Parenting With Sara Dean

Which working mom do you know who has it all together? I can't think of anyone. Oh wait…why don’t we ask the same question about dads? Why aren’t they called working dads?  Being a parent is an incredibly fulfilling experience, but it comes with a heck of a lot of challenges, none of which you can ever be fully prepared to face. But the truth is working moms face different challenges, not just in their homes, but also, especially in the workplace. Gender bias, ageism, imposter syndrome, and psychological safety are just some of the issues we have to combat each day. What gives? Fortunately, we have someone with me today to provide tips on navigating these complex issues. Sara Dean is a Mindset, Business, and Leadership Coach for Moms. She is the host of The Shameless Mom Academy Podcast. This podcast covers everything from overcoming mom overwhelm to being an advocate and ally in your community. And this episode is not just for moms, but any parent who works outside of the home.Join us in this candid and energetic conversation. We might be having a good laugh while talking, but believe me, we are taking these mommy and daddy issues very seriously!"You're breaking down trust when you say it's safe, and then you continually prove that it's not.
