What happens when two powerful advocates for gender equity join forces? Can they change the narrative surrounding working mothers? Tune into this riveting conversation with Rachel Bauer and Kelsey Pytlik, the trailblazing co-founders of Gild Collective. They share their inspiring journeys, the inception of their organization, and their relentless pursuit to elevate empathy and understanding in workplaces, particularly for working mothers.

Tara and her guests navigate the complex terrain of maternal bias and the 'daddy bonus' phenomenon. Rachel and Kelsey shed light on the often unseen tasks that disproportionately burden women, the criticality of setting boundaries, and the role managers play as allies for working mothers. Kelsey and Rachel not only challenge these stereotypes but provide actionable insights on how to combat them.

In the final portion of the conversation, they delve into the silent epidemic of invisible labor and its unequal distribution. Rachel and Kelsey offer guidance on how mothers can assertively demand their fair share and the importance of tracking and evaluating our contributions at work. They also explore the three steps of allyship and the significance of managers in preventing burnout. So, if you're a working parent or an organization looking to foster an inclusive environment, this episode is a must-listen!
