A as a founder who has spent 7 years building a somehow novel solution, this comment means a ton. ๐Ÿฉต There will always be skeptics, grow and learn from them but donโ€™t let it stop something you know deep down is absolutely without a doubt the right thing to do. Keep going! ๐Ÿ™Œ

@matt_vanswol @brittwriley I really love this because it goes to show that you don't need to agree with the consensus in the comments. Or even the people that point out it won't work. Find the solution. Find a model that does, go for that and win. Laugh.

That is is okay to step back when you have children and determine what your priorities are, where your responsibilities lay and know in their souls that it is okay to do whatever works for them on any given day.

@CartierAwards @jenny_blake @MeganBruneau @Steph_Pollock @amyegallo @A_WittenbergCox @anishamydala @katemwhite @mogulmomdujour @annaauerbach @khonda The first step from policy makers would be to simply require a reasonable amount of paid time off for maternity/paternity. To get on board with the rest of the world would be a start. In my opinion it will equally take a cultural mindshift and change in the workplace mindset.

Hereโ€™s the thing, I agree with lots of #POTUS โ€™s plan. But the way he is explaining childcare and cutting the cost is making it look like childcare employers have a choice. We donโ€™t, we want to pay our employees a living wage and that is the only reason why itโ€™s expensive. #SOTU

@anishamydala @CartierAwards I have always been an entreprenuer and while I am the breadwinner, it literally feels impossible to have a conversation about my husband stepping way from any of his 9-5 work responsibility. A heavy burden to carry with a 2y/r and infant.

Which inherently allows the person in question to determine their own "all" to work to feel good about each area of their lives without feeling as though the other shoe is about to drop.
