The Mother Board

Have you ever wondered if you can actually have a successful legal career AND a family? Sure, work-life balance is all the rage, but can it really be done? Are you confused about whether working moms are supposed to be “leaning in”, “leaning out”, or just hoping there’s something to lean on when they fall over from sheer exhaustion? Then we have a podcast for you! Come join the dynamic ladies of The Mother Board podcast: three women with different backgrounds and backstories, but all of whom practice law in Atlanta, Georgia and share the common bond of maintaining an active role in their families while taking charge of their careers. In each episode, The Mother Board will take you into their personal and professional lives and engage in honest and thought-provoking discussions on what it means to be fulfilled and to succeed both personally and professionally.*The views and opinions expressed here are those of the podcast participants and do not reflect the official policy or position of the participants' respective employers.
