Such a timely topic for so many. Your host, Donna Peters, chats with Liz Brigham on how to thrive in a dual-career family. HBR research shows that dual-career families take on one of three shapes. Which are you?
- Primary-Secondary
- Turn-Taking
- Double Primary
Research also shows that while 60% of households have both parents working, relationships where the woman makes more than the man are 50% more likely to end in divorce. And women tend to take on 7.5 more hours of domestic work a week than the working male partner. Research suggests same-sex, dual-career couples do better at balancing career aspirations and domestic duties.
Liz views dual-career relationships more like seasons. In this wonderfully inspiring and practical discussion, we talk about the need for communication to fulfill both parties.
Liz is a musician and music producer and even curated this Me-Suite Family Spotify playlist to accompany the discussion. How's that for a Me-Suite suitener! Liz’s core values are:
