We created this podcast to show female attorneys and working moms that you’re not alone in the struggle to balance your career and your personal life. Every day, we deal with making decisions for our careers and for our families.
And, often, we have questions! How do I write this? Is this okay to send in an email? Does emailing this make me look weak? Does this outfit make me look fat? We’re here to help. We want to provide you real life answers to your questions, from law to motherhood, sprinkled with a bit of entertaining stories and laughter.
We are by no means perfect when we record and it was a huge learning curve from episode 1 to now episode 10 for our first season. We still make mistakes but we also have found it's best to just laugh at ourselves. We hope you find these bonus bloopers funny too!
