As a new mom in the workplace, having a supportive manager upon your return can make a time in life that feels chaotic and hard, feel calmer and give you more confidence. At a time when your routine is completely different than it was months ago, you’re potentially navigating pumping, and emotions are running high, a good manager can make all the difference.

My guest this week, Nikki Smith, tries to provide this support for her staff. She had an amazing manager when she was a young mom that made all the difference and now she’s paying it forward.

Nikki and I also talk a lot about the zoo industry in general, so it's a great episode for the best of both worlds!
