What does the future hold for working parents in California?
Will the childcare crisis, homeschooling debacle and issues involving remote work and essential work put us on a new path to better work-life balance?
Are the federal and state governments going to make parenting easier to do going forward?
And how can we use what we’ve learned during the pandemic to ensure that raising kids while working full-time fills us with happiness instead of with heartburn?
We talk with two people who focus on better work-life balance issues professionally at their day job, and also personally at home as parents to young children.
