10. Feeling Overwhelmed as a Working Mom? It’s Likely Because We’re Playing a Rigged Game. Tips and Insight from Dr. Anne Welsh for guilt, support, communication and getting it all done.

We're led to believe that the ideal working mom is able to get it all done, be in complete balance and live in a way that doesn't spark overwhelm. Today's episode will rock that mythical belief to its core as I talk with Dr. Anne Welsh, clinical psychologist, executive coach and consultant. As she says, "we're playing a rigged game".

 

Consider this your very own, free therapy session for all things related to being a working mom:

• Transitions and phases
• Overwhelm
• Balance
• Getting it all done
• Guilt
• Support of those around you (aka your spouse)
• Communication
• And even a history lesson on the ideal worker

 

Dr. Welsh began her career at Harvard before opening her own practice with a focus on supporting working parents in growing their careers and families. She is a mother of 4 and draws on her own experience as a mother, her research career in the transition to motherhood, and her 15 years in practice to help parents feel less alone, more connected to themselves and their values, and more empowered to make their own choices.
