A Hierarchy of Her Own with Leslie Forde

In this week's episode, we are chatting with Leslie Forde, founder of Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs — a company that provides moms with products, research and community to reclaim time for their well-being. Her business also supports organizations to promote wellness for parents at greater risk for burnout with self-care research, rituals and software while teaching managers to disrupt patterns that cause fatigue.

After reaching complete burnout in her own life as an exhausted mom with a demanding corporate job, a colleague asked Forde a simple question: why are moms always so stressed out? Her response would change the course of her career and life, as well as the lives of many others.

We discussed all the things including burn out, what needs to change in the workplace, what to look for in an employer, the truth about entrepreneurship and mental health and how to reach the top of the Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs more often.
