#188 – A New Return to Work Approach With Andrea Bombino

There still seems like there is so much work to do for mothers and their return to work after giving birth. My guest today deeply understands the challenges that still rise. Andrea Bombino is by anybody's definition and incredibly ambitious and successful woman. She set her sights on creating a career at a young age that would really change the trajectory of her life. And then, along came motherhood. She looked around at the industry that she was working in and saw no examples of women successfully working at that level and juggling motherhood. Dive headfirst into this remarkable conversation as Amy and Andrea discuss.

• Conscious and unconscious bias affecting career progression. For example, women of a certain age, who have just got married, have had one baby and it’s about a year and a half later.
• Responses from clients and colleagues when sharing the news of pregnancy; judgements, anxieties and disrespect.
• The wobble of craving intellectual connections vs wanting to be with our babies.   
• The juggle and logistics of working full time, running a household and raising a baby.
• And much more.

This conversation is one that could have easily extended for hours, and it is crucial that this topic does not simply stop here. To find out more about Andrea you can visit her website https://madetomotherco.com/ and follow her on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/madetomotherco/.
