À propos de cet audio
Dr Nelisha Wikremasinghe is a psychologist, therapist and author. She’s mum to two sons – 24 and 17 – and has navigated the journey of working and parenting solo for much of the time.
Nelisha talks wisely and with deep reflection about how challenging it is to parent and work, and explores how women need to learn more about self-compassion in order to survive and thrive as a professional working mum.
We explore the importance of building in room for slippage (or a ‘fail space’) and how ‘threat’ brain drives so many unhelpful behaviours in bright, successful women who are juggling working and parenting. One of my favourite lines in this podcast is “I’m quite a good juggler but our children are not balls”. I need that written on a poster somewhere!
Insightful, searingly honest and with fantastic psychological insights, this is a wonderful podcast for anyone who wants to believe in the positive impact of a powerful woman at home.
