Balancing Work and Family (According to Science), with Dr. Yael Schonbrun
We hear so much about the negatives of being a working parent. The reality is that there are so many hours in a day, so it's difficult if not impossible to excel at work AND parenting. Some of us will view this dichotomy and tension as Work Family Conflict.
But Dr. Yael Schonbrun is putting a positive spin on it, preferring to use the term Work Family Enrichment. But what does that mean? And how can a positive spin help us become better parents?
Dr. Yael Schonbrun is the author of the book Work, Parent, Thrive: 12 Science-Backed Strategies to Ditch Guilt, Manage Overwhelm, and Grow Connection (When Everything Feels Like Too Much) and the co-host of the Psychologists Off the Clock Podcast.
