The Work Series: my biggest mistakes and regrets - Zoe’s story
Sobre este episodio
Welcome to Motherkind’s special 8 part series on work, bringing together some of the leading voices on motherhood and work to support you wherever you’re at. This is a series that covers pausing paid work to embrace the work of raising a family, the structural challenges we face as mothers in the workplace, the 'motherhood penalty', how to return to work and so much more. And there was only one possible way to kick off this series: with Zoe sharing her story and her journey with paid work and motherhood for the past 9 years. In this episode Zoe shares her challenges, her tensions, what she’s got right AND wrong - from way before Motherkind to how she plans to navigate the future.
