Mother’s Guilt or Carer’s Guilt: How we Find the Balance Between all of Things we Love

Published on: 20th November, 2017

As women, we are often juggling different care roles and as mother’s we have a particular challenge with navigating motherhood and business.

Today we wanted to talk about mother’s guilt or carer’s guilt and the way we can often feel torn by not having enough time or energy to give to everyone and everything we care about.

As business owners, most of us love our businesses, but we also love our family, hobbies or the parts of lives that pull us in a different direction.

We talk about some of our experiences in this area and some strategies for making it easier to balance our work and lives.

About the Podcast

Women in the Business Arena™
There is no one right way to do business, there is just a right way for YOU! And many women in business are DONE with hustle, bro-marketing culture, and business tactics that are misaligned with their values.

Instead, more women are looking to build a business that honors their passion, gifts & wisdom.

If you are ready for a DIFFERENT way to operate your business - one that brings ease, challenges the patriarchal status quo, and helps you make a difference in the world (with both your business & your bank account), then this podcast is for you!

Sonya Stattmann uses her 21 years of experience working with thousands of women in business to facilitate honest, educational & inspiring conversations with other women leaders, business owners, and experts.

She also has regular conversations with our resident mental health expert, Laura-Shook Guzman, to tackle mindset, thinking, and the patterns that sabotage women’s path to business success.

This is a DIFFERENT kind of business podcast!
