93: The Honest Struggle of Kids and Career with Tally Abecassis from First Day Back Podcast

Listen Later

Do you struggle with going back to work after having  kids?  Do you wonder how to juggle work and kids, and does any Mom really ‘do it all’?

In this Episode Tally and I discuss: 

  • why she, as a documentary filmmaker, decided to do a podcast
  •  why podcasting is the kind of storytelling she wants to do now
  • this notion of Moms ‘having it all’, and is it really possible?
  • how the death of her Mom may have been a catalyst to being the possible voice of Stay at Home Moms, and why that’s still confusing for her
  • why Society is not set up to have 2 working parents in a full capacity
  • how Flexibility may be the solution to this Work Life Balance challenge
