In this episode, I am joined by the lovely Dr Jenny Hahn, and we discuss pursuing goals as a mother. Jenny shares her experience of pregnancy and delivery, the challenges of balancing motherhood and academia, and the importance of modeling a balanced life for her son.

The conversation touches on themes of patience, gratitude, and the duality of motherhood. Jenny also reflects on the privilege of opportunities and the lessons she has learned about grit, perseverance and avoiding perfectionism.
