Ever felt like you're juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle? That's the reality for many working mums trying to keep it together in the workplace and at home. In this episode of The Goodness Chick, Aaron Lawler Patterson teams up with Pauliana Lara, an attorney and women's advocate, to chat about the pressures faced by women who wear multiple hats daily.
Pauliana, who's no stranger to this balancing act herself, shares how she navigates her roles as a lawyer, mum, and community member, while advocating for mental wellness. They discuss the importance of setting boundaries and asking for help without guilt or shame. Pauliana emphasises that admitting you need help is not a sign of failure but a step towards maintaining your mental health.
The conversation is sprinkled with anecdotes that many women will find relatable – from missing a child's milestone due to work commitments to feeling judged in a grocery store. It's all about breaking the stigma and encouraging women to support each other rather than tearing each other down. So, if you're a woman feeling overwhelmed, this episode might just be the pep talk you need to realise that it's okay not to be okay.
Tune in for a dose of empathy, encouragement, and practical advice on finding balance and prioritising mental wellness.
