About this episode

When we're told that we can have it 'all', what does that really look like and does it matter? Why has women's happiness been declining since the 1970s and what do we do about the fact that working mothers are 40% more stressed than their peers without children? To help us wrestle with these questions is Giselle Goodwin PhD, our guest today and author of 'Can Women Really Have it All?' We hope this conversation makes you feel seen and heard, and that if you're feeling the overwhelm of modern motherhood - you're not alone.
