From overnight wake-ups and packing lunches to changing careers and finding energy, Megan and I cover a LOT in this episode. I'm joined by sister-in-law for an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about what full-time work actually looks like with three young kids at home.
We talk candidly about the seasons of motherhood that stretch your capacity, force you to lower expectations, and ultimately show you just how capable you really are.
You'll hear real stories from daily life as a working mom, including:
What a typical workday looks like with three kids five and under
How she manages early mornings, daycare drop-offs, and tight schedules
The reality of pumping at work and trying to protect that time
How she thinks about sleep, exhaustion, and managing expectations when nights are broken
The logistics of packing all the food for daycare—and the simple systems that make it doable
Why repetition can be a gift for both kids and parents
If you're a working mom juggling young kids, feeling stretched thin, or wondering if now is really the right time to make a change, this conversation will remind you that you're not alone—and that your capacity is likely greater than you think.
