Her money comes to you through PRX. Hi everybody I'm Jean Chatsky.

Welcome to her money.

As always, so excited to have you with me today we are talking leadership and

self-love and how life is one big juggling act and not always a pretty one at that but before I reveal who were talking about all

of this with and she happens to be sitting across from me right now I want to

read you something that she wrote and for some context it was her first day back at work from maternity leave.

She was heading to work at her dream job. And the day was a whirlwind, of course. So much of one that she forgot to pump breast milk.

And we've all been there.

By the end of the day, she writes, there I was kneeling on the floor of the bathroom stall in my drenched silk

blouse and designer suit, tears streaming down my face and milk streaming from my body. My vision of a future in which I

gracefully managed both career and home had been obliterated. The helplessness and

confusion I felt that night after my first day back at work

is not uncommon. Many women have home lives that become more demanding and time-consuming

at the very point when their careers need the most attention, energy, and creativity.

Between all of our meetings, carpools, texts, emails, phone calls, laundry loads, playdates, working out or guilt over

not working out, women are doing enough.

On any given day, most of us are trying to do the impossible. This is why we are so tired and stressed.
