EP04: Deconstructing the “it all goes to plan” Myth

This week we are deconstructing our conversation from last week with Sarah Argenal.  Here’s that episode. Sarah works in the fast-paced litigation field but set plans in motion when she began her family to transition into a work from home mom. Liz and Kate discuss: the ups and downs of the myth that “it all goes to plan” Where motherhood fits into our identities. Embracing shifting priorities. How routines help us get through the daily parenting tasks. Where to find time for ourselves & partners. What our self care looks like. Study that women do more housework than their partners. **Clarification & Updates: Sarah worked as a Litigation Support Analyst (not as a lawyer), we misspoke in the episode! As a recent update, she still continues to work in this field from home after the birth of her second child.** MORE FROM SARAH: Follow Sarah on Twitter Follow Sarah on Facebook Follow Sarah on Instagram Follow Sarah on Pinterest MORE FROM MOM DECONSTRUCTED: Support this podcast on Patreon.
