Girlfriends, episode number 335, ideas and help for working moms.

Hello and welcome to girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom and I'm on a mission to help you.

Know your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy in family living.

This week's topic came to me from two separate emails from listeners

who are looking for some ideas and help support for working moms who are feeling overwhelmed

and discouraged. This is such an important topic. I have many thoughts to share. So let's get started.

Hey, girlfriend, how are you? I hope you are doing well. Thank you so much for joining me here. I'm always happy to connect with you. If you're a first time listener to the

I hear from moms who are struggling to balance home life and work life and everything in

between. So this is something that really does affect many different women in many different ways.

And I heard from two different listeners, so with different emails asking questions about this

particular topic. So I thought, well, let's just do a whole show where we can take up this topic and kind of talk about all of these things that we tend to struggle with, these ideas, these concepts about being a working mom and whether you should be full time at home, full time at work, or some creative balance between the two that many of us find ourselves in

that place, especially in today's world with remote work being so readily available.

Actually, one was from a woman who's actually part of our girlfriends' community over at

girlfriends' community.com, which is our

online kind of go deeper version of all the things that we share here on the podcast. If you're
