11/23/22 • 1 min
When I got pregnant during the Covid lockdown, I wished for more contact with other women who shared my experiences. I wanted to encourage more open and honest conversations about motherhood so in April this year, I started talking to women about becoming mothers, motherhood and all the taboo topics that are related to it. But I wanted to do more.
I am also a trainer and career consultant. You can find my workshops and tutorials on www.theconfusedmother.com

Women go through so many changes when they become mothers. Then they have to go back to work as if they didn’t have the added responsibilities. Parents need more support in their daily lives from family members, friends and also a lot of understanding and flexibility from their employers. In this episode, we dive into the challenges that mothers face when returning to work without adequate support. I spoke to Karola about this and so much more. Karola Theile and Saskia Dierkes are the founders of YouParents.
