#50: Finding Balance For Working Moms (with guests Christy Wright and Rachel Cruze)
b'Working moms deal with a lot of pressure inside the home and in the office. That\\u2019s why Dr. Meg thought it would be great to tackle this issue of finding a really healthy work-life balance. Since comparison games an \\u201cmommy shaming\\u201d are so easy to be distracted by with social media these days, Dr. Meg wanted to have a conversation with Christy Wright and Rachel Cruze of Ramsey Solutions. Christy and Rahcel are world-class speakers, best-selling authors, working professionals, wives to their husbands, and also mothers. They have great advice for moms who feel called to work, but also do not want to neglect their husbands and children.
