#306 - Effective Communication With Your Employer As A Working Mom

The CPA MOMS Podcast

One of the biggest challenges we face as working moms is the fear of being perceived as less committed or less capable because of our parenting responsibilities. This fear can often lead to under-communication, where we might hesitate to speak up about our needs or difficulties.

But here's the thing: not communicating these needs doesn't make them go away. Instead, it can lead to increased stress, burnout, and even resentment. On the other hand, clear and proactive communication can pave the way for a more supportive and understanding work environment.

I’ve been a CPA for almost as long as I’ve been a mom, so I know how important it is to have my employer on board with what I need to do my best, both at work and at home. That’s why I wanted to do this episode; to discuss why problems can arise, how they impact your work-life balance, and most importantly, what you can do to address them effectively.

This week, I’m going to discuss the typical problems you might experience and suggestions for effective communication with your employer.
