When you're a dual career couple, it can be tricky to coordinate schedules and balance work and family life.
This week, Verena Hefti MBE is joined by married couple Sally Hamm and Matt Hamm, Occupational Medicine Physicians (who worked together as Air Force Flight Surgeons), who share four children alongside their busy senior careers.
Sally and Matt open up about how they have evolved their thinking around combining raising their family and progressing their careers.
The couple share practical advice on how they prioritise what they say yes to and strategies for communicating with your partner to ensure you truly share the load.
We hope you enjoy the conversation.
