Summary

I don't know about you, but I find it difficult to delegate tasks in both my work and family life. Often, I find myself deciding that it's easier to do things myself rather than enlist the help of supportive people. In this episode, I'm excited to chat with Emily King, CEO and co-founder of Faye. Emily experienced the overwhelm that comes with balancing parenthood and a demanding job, and she created a whole business dedicated to help parents delegate.
