The Well Nourished Mama

130. How to Advocate for Yourself as a Working Parent Without Burning Out


Listen Later

Working parents are experiencing higher levels of stress and burnout than ever before, and it’s not just a time management problem. In this episode, Dr. Rosina McAlpine joins Brooke as they break down the research behind working parent stress, why work and home life are more connected than we think, and what’s really driving burnout.


You’ll learn how workplaces can better support families, why “family-friendly” policies often fall short, and how to advocate for yourself in a way that actually creates change. This conversation blends data with practical strategies so you can feel more supported, more empowered, and less overwhelmed in both your work and your home life.
