Listen Later

As a working mum, I've often struggled to find the right balance between my career and family life, which is why I was thrilled to have Kelly Taylor join me for an insightful chat. Kelly is a content creator, media executive, and mum of two who's grown a following of over 50,000 on her Instagram account, Kids and the Commute. Tune in to hear her candid stories about empowering working mums, navigating the dark moments of motherhood, and the importance of humour.

In our conversation, Kelly and I explore the impact of the pandemic on re-evaluating our life priorities and the mental load many of us carry. We also touch on Kelly's experience as the most senior working mum in her department, the importance of normalising working parenthood, and how this affects both working parents and non-parents alike. As Kelly steps back from full-time employment to pursue her passion for content creation, we discuss the challenges and excitement of managing work, parenting, and an Instagram account.

Kelly emphasises the importance of authenticity and persistence in content creation, sharing her insights on cautious humour and the power of storytelling. We also dive into the beauty of female-led narratives, the rise of the "mumfluencer," and the changing media landscape. So grab a cup of coffee and join us for this enlightening and entertaining episode, perfect for fellow working mums or anyone needing a good chuckle.
