Summary

In this episode, we discuss the duality of motherhood as both a gift and a burden, and the societal expectations placed on women regarding their roles as mothers and professionals. We discuss the challenges of balancing personal identity, career aspirations, and the realities of motherhood, while also addressing the myth of 'having it all' in a capitalist society. The dialogue highlights the need for a shift in how motherhood is perceived and valued, advocating for greater support and understanding for mothers in today's world. Join us...
