It’s not an easy task to juggle professional and parent life! I believe what matters the most is that you are happy. I have no doubts our kids want happy fulfilled present parents ❤️

That's what I (try to) remind myself of all the time, Diego. Some days the guilt gets to me (like when my daughter gets upset sometimes when I drop her off at daycare), but ultimately, I know this to be true! Thank you so much for sharing. 😊

I sometimes think that being a business owner and new mom was way harder than working my 40 hour week as an employee but it’s not true. Like you said, everything has a trade off.

I’m sorry you had that experience with an older mom, which was unfair. Hopefully for every moment we receive like that we can sow more empathy to parents in return.

I love that mindset shift, Chanel. Sowing more empathy in return is such an empowering way to think about it. Thank you. 😊
