Default Parenting, Working Mom Guilt, and the Invisible Workload
A great panel discussion alongside some fantastic mothers including Erin Pepler, Alana McGinn, Roxanne Francis, and Libby Ward.
“Don't feel guilty for finding joy in different aspects of your life❤️ The life you lead is the example you're setting for your children. I want my kids to know they can have a fulfilling career while also raising a family. I want them to see the example of an #equalpartnership and reap the benefits of having an active father participating in the household and caregiving roles.”
