Special Edition: Modern Motherhood & Making Room for Joy

from The NewsWorthy

The day before Mother's Day, we're looking at the mixed emotions many moms feel: love, gratitude… and exhaustion. Dr. Corinne Low, a Wharton professor and author of Having It All, explains what the data shows about the pressures of modern motherhood — from how much time parents spend with kids today compared to decades ago, to the invisible work many moms still carry. Plus, how families can think differently about outsourcing help, and how even overwhelmed moms can make sure joy is still on the to-do list.   Learn more about our guest(s): https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/shownotes Join us again for our 10-minute daily news roundups every Mon-Fri!  Become an INSIDER and get ad-free episodes here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/insider Get The NewsWorthy MERCH here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/merch Sponsors: Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/newsworthy and use promo code NEWSWORTHY at checkout!
