Parenting: Getting timing right

Parenthood can change a work trajectory like little else. So when and how do you decide to have kids, especially if you’re going to be the person carrying that pregnancy? On today’s episode, Jessi talks to several parents about their journeys, shares some thoughts about her own, and finally gets advice on what to consider from expert Daisy Dowling, author of Workparent: The complete guide to succeeding on the job, staying true to yourself, and raising happy kids. Daisy has lots to think about - including a few things that may not be top of mind right away. Follow Ashley K. Stoyanov Ojeda, Kelly Shorr, Garlia Cornelia Jones, Danielle Pickens, and Daisy Dowling on LinkedIn. These parents do so much, in and out of the parenting field.
