How much time should moms spend with their kids? What if it's quality over quantity? CEO and co-founder Emma Grede set social media on fire when she described herself as a <a href="https://www.wsj.com/style/fashion/emma-grede-book-start-with-yourself-a7b2c82d"target="_blank" >“max three-hour mum”</a> and said that she would rather focus on creating “high-impact, core memories” with her children. The founding partner of Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS also said that remote work is ‘career suicide’ for women. The idea that a working mother - even a CEO mom - would spend so little time with her kids was outrageous to some…but isn’t that the reality for most parents?  To get into all of this, Brittany is joined by <a href="https://www.thecut.com/author/kathryn-jezer-morton/"target="_blank" >Kathryn Jezer-Morton</a>, writer of the Brooding column from The Cut, and <a href="https://helenaandrews.com/"target="_blank" >Helena Andrews-Dyer</a>, journalist and author, to unpack the 'controversial' notion of a mother not wanting to spend all her time with her kids.
