Shame & The Working Mom: Managing the Constant Tension

Such a joy having Ashley with me to talk about the tension that can exist for the working mom and what we can do to shift the way we show up to and in these roles and how to build a more supportive community. Some of my favorite takeaways included: Learning more about what it was like for Ashley to transition into motherhood Differentiating between adaptive versus maladaptive drive in what we do The right to create the system that works for you in your own home How shame gives you way to much power & responsibility for everyone else's lives Why you need to stop playing games designed for you to fail One statement we all need to stop making to each other when we are trying to be supportive and what to do instead More About Ashley: Ashley Quinto Powell is a serial entrepreneur and Founder of the Virtual Assistant Agency, myVA Rocks.
