Switching Gender Roles with Priscilla McKinney
What happens when a woman is the breadwinner and her husband takes the lead at home? Apparently, a lot of raised eyebrows, unsolicited opinions, and a bizarre mix of pity and praise. Entrepreneur and mother Priscilla McKinney joins me to talk about flipping the script on traditional gender roles, how she and her husband Steve made the switch, and what it really means to thrive in a setup that works for them—not society’s outdated rulebook. We get into the hilarity of watching people fumble over the idea of a stay-at-home dad (spoiler: they either worship him or assume he’s unemployed), the brutal weight of being the sole financial provider, and the power of letting go—of guilt, control, and the need to know everything about your child’s life. This one is for anyone who's ever questioned the status quo, felt the pressure to do it all, or needed a reminder that you get to decide what your family dynamic looks like. Listen in and prepare to unlearn a few things.
