But no one mentioned the other two full-time jobs:
Raising children Running a household
In this episode, Jamie sits down with Katherine to talk about the generational messaging that shaped modern motherhood — and why so many parents feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and like they’re somehow failing.
Jamie brings the Gen X perspective, raised by boomers and depression-era grandparents.
Katherine brings the millennial perspective — a generation raised to believe they should excel professionally while also building a perfect home life.
And the reality?
Something had to give.
In this conversation, they unpack:
The generational messaging millennial women grew up with
The pressure to “be the best” at everything
Why motherhood was treated like a side note to career success
How parenting expectations have changed across generations
Why so many modern parents feel like they’re drowning
The cultural differences around motherhood in the U.S. vs Europe
The unrealistic expectations placed on modern families
What actually needs to change
This episode is an honest look at the impossible standard placed on modern mothers — and why it's time to rethink what success actually looks like.
