In today's episode, our guest Jess Weisz and I chat about the concept of exceptionalism and the immense pressure it creates, particularly for mothers striving to balance career, caregiving, and self-care. We talk about the unrealistic corporate culture demands, the systemic challenges mothers face, and the impact of society's lack of trust and support systems.
Topics also covered:
-Exploitation of causes by corporations and the prioritization of space exploration over fundamental human needs
-Self-worth and the fallacy of exceptionalism
-The value of one's inherent achievements
Listen in as we envision a future where caregiving is valued equitably in society.
