Summary

On the Finding Joy Episodes of this podcast I talk about real-life good and not so good of being a parent, particularly sharing my perspective as a mom and woman. I share ways to navigate feelings of judgement, mom guilt, or that not good enough feeling we may feel as parents. I’ve had my husband come on the show and I’m now excited to welcome another guest, one of my favorite ABC News Television Personalities, and my friend, Erielle Reshef. Erielle is a mother and works as a ABC News National Correspondent covering some of the top stories around the world. She joins me to discuss:  Why she believes “work-life balance” is an elusive goal  How she approaches mom guilt How she reframes her mindset on difficult news days or news cycles  Connect with Erielle on Instagram or Twitter @eriellereshef  Check out my weekly videos on child health & development by ⁠subscribing to PedsDocTalk on YouTube⁠.
