What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

Best Of: Yael Schonbrun on "Work, Parent, Thrive"


Listen Later

Why does it feel like our career and our family are pulling us in different directions and making it hard to be fully present in both arenas? In her book Work, Parent, Thrive: 12 Science-Backed Strategies to Ditch Guilt, Manage Overwhelm, and Grow Connection (When Everything Feels Like too Much). Dr. Yael Schonbrun explains how we can move from a zero-sum mindset to a life in which our work life and our family life are enable to enrich each other.

Yael Schonbrun is also the co-host of the "Psychologists Off the Clock" podcast, an assistant professor at Brown University, and a mother of three little comedians. In this "Best Of" interview Yael and Amy discuss:

  • Why the guilt that often accompanies parenting is hard-wired into us
  • What values clarification looks like
  • Why starting a "stop doing" list can be surprisingly helpful
