The concepts of the motherhood penalty, maternal wall, and maternal wage gap are closely interlinked, all centering on the economic and professional challenges that mothers face. This episode is a breakdown of each and how they overlap, including how they show up specifically in business!

In this episode we discuss:

  • The Motherhood Penalty as a concept (and the Fatherhood Bonus)
  • The Maternal Wall as a concept
  • The Maternal Wage Gap as a concept
  • Why these systems are entrenched in economic policies and processes, and how they show up in our own businesses (sometimes subliminally)
  • The many reasons that motherhood / parenthood often feels so challenging and why you're not wrong for sometimes feeling like things are working against you
  • AND the mindset and powerful reclamation we have the opportunity to change cynical patterns for ourselves and future generations 
  • Why I am so passionate about creative entrepreneurship and making our own rules as mothers in business

With love,
