Every new day brings a new challenge in the life of a busy parent. While you try to smile your way through it, there are times when you can’t keep your cool, you think you’re failing, or when work is too much.
Jessica Rowe chats with a parent about how she wrote her own parenting rulebook when it comes to juggling the work-life balance, dividing duties in the home, and balancing the mental load. She’s not tied down by the traditional expectations of how to parent, she chose her own path and changed course many times to fit in with her family’s needs and ultimate happiness.
In this episode of Navigating Parenthood – Imperfect Parents, brought to you by HCF, we learn how to deal with the pressure of a busy life by changing the rules.
Hosted by Jessica Rowe
Featured expert: Lydia Black from PSYCH2U
