Ep 016 - Challenging Societal Norms: Balancing Career and Parenthood with Erin England

On today’s episode of Redefining Motherhood, I have Erin England, a successful attorney and founder of Diaper Concierge. We had such a great conversation about juggling the realities of motherhood alongside a thriving career. Erin takes us through her journey, sharing insights on balancing work-life dynamics while navigating through societal expectations, gender roles, and equality. As a working mother, Erin has encountered the sharp edge of unrealistic societal expectations and the often inadequate support from workplace policies. She opens up about her struggles with postpartum depression, anxiety, and the impact of traditional gender roles on parenting. As we navigate the delicate balance of parenting and career, Erin and her husband expose the 'parenthood tax' and the mental load mothers often bear. They share the necessity of equal roles in the household, and the need for increased understanding and support in the workplace. Wrapping up with a heartwarming discussion on cherishing the season of motherhood, this episode is an intimate portrayal of the transformational journey of parenthood.
