The Lie of Work-Life Balance (And What Actually Works) with Rachael Twumasi-Corson
Sobre este episodio
If you are a working mum who's ever felt like you're barely holding it all together; if you are constantly juggling work, kids, ambition and your own sanity - then THIS is the episode for you. Don't worry, it's not about 'finding balance' or 'doing it all'. In fact our guest today calls BS on all of that. Rachael Twumasi-Corson is an entrepreneur, fractional executive, mum of four, and the definition of a powerhouse. Since starting her first business at 18, Rachael has built multiple companies all while being pregnant or breast-feeding or leading board rooms. She tells us all about 'work/life harmony': what it actually looks like to be successful without losing yourself or the mother you want to be. If you've ever wondered how the hell you are supposed to do it all, or if you even want to, then this episode will help you redefine what success means to you on your terms.
