* Trigger warning -- if you are sensitive to conversations about weight or body size, you may want to skip this episode **
In this episode, Sarah and Laura tackle a sensitive topic that is relevant to many women - body image. Sarah and Laura have somewhat differing personal approaches to this sensitive topic, so they unpack those and discuss their histories with body image over the years, including interactions with pregnancy and nursing.
In the Q&A, a listener writes in asking about whether it makes sense to stop work to pick children up from school when they are able to do so (ie, remote and/or flexible work).
