One Badass (Working) Mother

I interviewed Dr. Valerie Rein, who’s the author of the bestselling book “Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Barrier to Women’s Happiness and Fulfillment.” If you’ve ever wondered why you feel dissatisfied, even if you’ve achieved a lot or have everything that “should” make you happy, you'll gain a lot from this episode. Dr. Valerie explains Patriarchy Stress Disorder - or PSD for short - and why it keeps us on a constant treadmill of achievement, despite the paradox of those achievements never really bringing us true and lasting fulfillment.

Sarah is a brand strategist, photographer, and a mom of two living in Brooklyn, NY.  We talk about her own career and and motherhood journey and how it's evolved over the years following the birth of her children and the pandemic. We discuss how working as a mother has been devalued over the years and how that can be a sticky place for many women who want to work and also spend time with their kids. Finally, we address how to think about the “new normal” - what does life look like after the pandemic and how can we conscientiously decide what kind of life and work we want to create.
