Dispelling the Myth of Work-Life Balance with Sarah Steele, aka The Corporate Mama

44 min • 31 maj 2023

In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Steele (aka The Corporate Mama) to talk about the myth of work-life balance and how Sarah strives for work-life fulfillment, the differences between being a working mom versus a working dad in the corporate world, and why a mandated parental leave across all workplaces would be a gamechanger.
