How To Balance Work, Being A Spouse, and Mother of Small Kids with Ashley Lehr and Katie Plitt.


Listen Later

Today, we are joined by two remarkable women, pillars of ATI, Katie Plitt and Ashley Lehr, to talk about how they deal with being a spouse, a mother, and the backbone of an organization with over 1700 members and more than 80 workers. 


Ashley, whose son Travis is almost 4, and Katie, mother of Caleb, who just turned one, talk about their daily routine, how they juggle the responsibilities of being busy moms, and how their kids see them. We delve into how they handle mom guilt, what they do to find time for themselves and their partners and their favorite plan to unplug themselves from work. 


We also discuss the importance of making a pause and taking time for ourselves as mothers, away from our kids, spouses, and any other responsibilities, and how they deal with the role of being "enforcers of law" at work and at home, being the ones that say no.
