Episode 8: The Privilege of Stay-At-Home Mothering

In this episode of the podcast, Em and Liz acknowledge their privilege as SAHMs while also pointing out the burdens of a 24-hour, 7-day work week. They hope that by openly citing privilege, they can open up a more productive dialogue about the realities of this parenting option.
