Despite it being 2019, many women are working through the balance of trying to figure out if they should work or stay home with their kids. While logically we know women can work if they want to, the struggle of trying to figure out if you should work or stay home is real for many.  Women have long been socialized to believe that being home and caring for their kids is what they "should" do and yet cultural beliefs have shifted much more towards everyone choosing for themselves. Host Lindsay Aerts works through her own struggles of finding the balance of staying home and working with Dr. Julie Hanks of Wasatch Family Therapy. You can find tickets to Dr. Hanks' TedXOgden talk on The Costs of Idealizing Motherhood here.
