312: Recognizing the Value of Domestic Labor with Kate Rosenow

Kate Rosenow is a business systems strategist and the owner of Work Well with Kate, where she gives women tools to streamline their businesses so they can be more profitable and less busy. In 2014 she founded Mavenly + Co., an educational platform for women looking to build a business on their own terms. During this time, she realized that the key to designing a sustainable, profitable business was well-built systems, and Work Well with Kate was born. She has worked with hundreds of women business owners across the country through group workshops, online training, and private coaching to equip them with the resources and mindset they need to build businesses that work for them rather than the other way around. She’s the host of the award-winning weekly Women, Work, and Worth podcast on iTunes. Her insight and advice have been featured in Forbes, Fortune, Real Simple, and Business Insider. Part of Kate’s most recent endeavor is a children’s book called All Mom’s Work, which is intended to spread the conversation about domestic labor and invisible labor to teach kids that the work it takes to keep a household running is work, and it’s equal to work that is done in an office. In this episode, Betsy and Kate discuss the motivation behind Kate’s book and why it’s so important to have this conversation with children. * Find Kate on IG @workwellwithkate * Visit her website: workwellwithkate.com * Get All Moms Work on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3zZQ4NU * Connect with Betsy on IG @betsypake TRANSCRIPT Welcome to the Art of Living big podcast.

Thanks for having me, Betsy. So my kind of LinkedIn title, if you will, the like one that you’ll see on the internet is I’m a Business minimalist and mentor. And that’s kind of a fancy way of saying I help women business owners really simplify and streamline their work so that they can be more profitable and less busy. So that’s the work that I’m doing day in and day out. And by nature of working with a lot of women, I work with a lot of mothers who are juggling business, but also juggling all of these other roles and responsibilities in their life. So part of my most recent endeavor is writing a children’s book called all mom’s work, which is really a conversation about domestic labor and invisible labor, and how so many women are wearing so many hats that are maybe unrecognized. And then also a program called business needs baby.
