You were told to work like you don’t have kids—and parent like you don’t have a job. But no matter how much you over-deliver, the guilt doesn’t go away. And that’s not on you.
In this episode, we unpack the invisible rules that make high-achieving mums feel like they have to overcompensate just to stay respected—and how to stop playing that game.
🎧 In this episode:
Why mum guilt runs so deep in corporate culture
How overworking reinforces the very bias you're trying to outrun
The problem with “flexibility” that still punishes visibility
What to do instead—especially if you’re ND or emotionally wired for guilt
You don’t need to do more. You need to stop apologising.
