Real Talk with Rachel Awtrey

Working mamas, we are looking at you! (Spoiler alert, ALL mamas are working moms). Balancing work, life, and raising babies isn’t an easy task. I think if you really ask anyone, they’d tell you there truly is no such thing as balance. Today Rachel and BTB’s marketing gal, Emily, sit down to have a candid conversation talking about what work looks like from home, outside of the home, and giving some encouragement in the seasons of motherhood where you feel like you can’t possibly do it all.
