155 / Executive Motherhood with Ashley Quinto Powell

<p>Whether you’re a full-time Mom where your job is<em> inside </em>the home, or a Mom who has an additional full or part time job <em>outside</em> the home, YOU HAVE A JOB. That job has REAL value. And we should start thinking about it like that.</p> <p>(Side note: I also believe that being a Dad is a job and more people should treat it as such, and dad expectations should be as high as mom expectations, but we’re talking about Moms here today.)</p> <p>I’ve invited <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyquinto/">Ashley Quinto Powell</a> to join me to talk about this concept of Mom as a career, and as an employer. Ashley is a serial entrepreneur, a national speaker, and the author of <em>Executive Motherhood: The Art of Having It All Without Doing It All</em>. As the Founder of the Virtual Assistant Agency, <a href="http://www.myva.rocks">myVA Rocks</a>, she knows a thing or two about running a business, and she’s spoken about motherhood for TEDx. Ashley provides a different perspective on Motherhood by redefining “mom,” as a mother and as an employer. </p> <p>Whether you’re a “yummy mummy” (you know those super zen yogi moms that wouldn’t dream of losing their cool and individually squeeze the milk of organic almonds while sculpting their abs, soothing kids&#39; feelings and saving the whales), a holding on by the seat of your pants</p> <p>Mom, or any other type of Mom, YOU HAVE VALUE!!</p> <p>Recognizing, appreciating, and acknowledging that value isn’t just Woman’s Work. It’s society’s work. </p> <p>It’s about time we see it for what it is: Women. Doing. Invaluable. Work.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Connect with Ashley and access resources:</strong></p> <p><strong>LI: </strong><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyquinto/"><strong>https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyquinto/</strong></a><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Resource: </strong><a href="http://www.myva.rocks"><strong>www.myva.rocks</strong></a></p> <p><strong>Link to her book Executive Motherhood: </strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/pro
