Babysode: Standing On Business

On this second to last (!!) episode of Parent Tell, Kaila talks with Jaymie Marocco; Jaymie is a professional powerhouse and mom to two kiddos. Kaila and Jaymie discuss Jaymie's experiences being pregnant in the corporate world, which is often not a super friendly environment for pregnant folks and parents of young children in general. The two moms discuss the fact that work genuinely isn't that serious, we're not saving the world by answering emails during our kids' dinner time, and how much psychological safety in the workplace gives us millennial parents the support we need to be real about the fact that we are parents 24/7, even when we are at work.Please take 30 seconds and rate, review, and subscribing to Parent Tell!
