82. Motherhood Killed My Career with Emily Tisch Sussman

Published: April 11, 2023, 9 a.m.

b'The United States hates mothers. At least, their woefully inadequate policies, like no federally mandated paid parental leave, lack of access to affordable childcare, and increased criminalization of women\\u2019s health care and reproductive rights, seem to suggest so. It\\u2019s no wonder that many who (or hope to) enter parenthood feel completely abandoned by society and often have to make increasingly difficult decisions about how they\\u2019ll even be able to manage having a child in the first place. We\\u2019re tackling this subject head-on with Emily Tisch Sussman \\u2013\\u2013 the author of the viral article \\u201cMotherhood Killed My Career\\u201d and podcast host of the She Pivots podcast. Emily joins Tori to talk about her own experience becoming a mother while working on high-profile political campaigns, how she pivoted her career as a result, and what she\\u2019s learned as an advocate for progressive policies for families.\\n\\nLearn more about this episode, read transcripts, and get additional resources at https://herfirst100k.com/start-here-financial-feminist-podcast\\n\\nNot sure where to start on your financial journey?
