Summary

Catherine Reitman is the creator, executive producer, writer and star (alongside her husband) of the popular Netflix series Workin' Moms, which just released its fourth season. You might have also seen her in shows like "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and "Blackish." Most importantly, she's also a wife, mom of two and is working full-time during the pandemic.

Catherine talks to Hilaria and Daphne about staying sane during quarantine, homeschooling and working with your spouse. She also opens up about her personal experience with postpartum depression, which was the impetus that helped her create the concept of Workin' Moms—as the show is based on her experiences navigating life after childbirth, trying to balance motherhood, her professional career and personal relationships.
