A Revolution for Women's Work and Ambition with Neha Ruch

This episode will motivate you in all kinds of new ways. Amidst all of the chaos in our country right now we actually have an opportunity to completely blow up the way we view motherhood, caregiving, women’s labor and ambition. Neha Ruch is leading this revolution. The author of the new bestseller 'The Power Pause,' joins me to explore the outdated stereotypes of stay-at-home motherhood and proposes a new narrative that values career pauses. The discussion highlights the importance of redefining ambition and professional identity and challenging traditional workplace norms that have been shaped predominantly by men. It emphasizes the need for unity among women, advocating for a paradigm shift where career breaks for caregiving are seen as valuable and growth-oriented. We can change the damn world.

Under the Influence is a deep dive into social media, a place haunted by aspirational marketing where it feels like every other person is a social media influencer trying to sell you something, all while posed in perfect houses that never seem to get messy. And behind this airbrushed perfection is money, so much money. Billions and billions of dollars. Journalist and mom Jo Piazza looks at how we got here, what it all means and how the commodification of every single aspect of our lives is driving everyone (but mostly women and mothers) a little insane.
