This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

Synopsis: Elizabeth Vahey Smith is back to talk about trauma informed leadership. Find out practical tips for parents on how to engage with their children when witnessing heightened emotional responses, ensuring the child feels heard and understood. We give examples about how that could happen when a parent is away for work. Elizabeth gives insights from her new book on establishing psychological safety in the workplace, recognizing elevated responses, and fostering a culture of trust and resilience. You can also listen to her previous episode on HTFA podcast #49 where she gives strategies on how to process our emotions. What you Will Learn: 1. Parenting isn't just about raising kids -It's about leading them. Elizabeth Vahey Smith, COO of TCK Training, sheds light on how trauma-informed leadership principles can transform our approach to parenting. 2. Elizabeth shares a pivotal moment when she realized that leadership, both at work and home, was being handled poorly. Her experience of being triggered by leadership at work made her rethink how she was parenting her children. 3. The key insight? Leadership behaviors-like not listening or giving few choices-can erode psychological safety, whether you're at the office or at home with your kids. Parents often exert authority over children without realizing the impact. 4. Trauma isn't always about big events. Even small incidents can leave lasting emotional consequences. For kids, it might be something as subtle as a parent missing a significant event due to work travel. 5. Want to be more trauma-informed? Start by asking questions and getting curious about your child's resistance. Understand what's blocking them rather than just exerting authority. 6. In the workplace, similar principles apply. Leaders should aim for psychological safety, ensuring that team members feel heard and valued, which boosts engagement and productivity. 7. Elizabeth's upcoming book: "Trauma Informed Leadership," offers a comprehensive guide on navigating trauma in various settings—from parenting to corporate management. 8. Let's redefine leadership: It's about mobilizing people with an awareness of their past experiences and fostering environments that promote healing and resilience. 9. Let's build cultures of trust and safety , where everyone feels heard, whether at home or in the office, . Empowering families and teams to thrive begins with understanding and compassion. 10. It's time to bring trauma-informed principles to the forefront. Dive deeper into Elizabeth Vahey Smith's work and redefine the way you lead at home and beyond.

Synopsis: Is a high performance life compatible with family life? Christian Ray Flores went from being a child refugee, a famous popstar, to the founder of Exponential Life, high performance coaching for purpose driven professionals with a lot of philanthropy, teaching, and speaking as well. In this episode, we speak about high performance, work demands, what it means for the family, and the changes he has made in his life. Key Takeaways: After hearing about Christian’s fascinating experience growing up across continents and his life as a famous popstar, we dive into why he changed direction and how he adjusted his travel time to prioritise his family life, although it cost him financially. 1. Navigating Work Travel and Family Life: Being able to balance frequent business travel with maintaining strong familial relationships is critical. Christian's experiences underscore the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing family despite professional demands. 2. Travel's Impact on Personal Relationships: Frequent work travel can significantly strain personal relationships, making it difficult to sustain connections. Both Christian and Rhoda emphasized the necessity of conscious efforts and lifestyle adjustments to mitigate these impacts. 3. Implementing Travel Moratoriums: Christian shared his personal decision to implement a six-month moratorium on travel to re-focus on his family life. This pause allowed him to reset and reestablish a stable family environment. 4. Frequency Management for Sustainable Balance: Post-moratorium, Christian decided to reduce his travel frequency to once every one or two months, finding this more manageable and less disruptive to his family life. 5. Innovative Lifestyle Choices: To balance career demands with family presence, Christian suggested alternative lifestyles such as traveling with family and homeschooling children, emphasizing the importance of full immersion and presence with family during critical upbringing years. 6. Role of Personal Relationships in High Performance: The episode highlighted that sustainable high performance is closely tied to support from personal relationships, including family. Frequent travelers must ensure that their work does not overshadow the need to maintain these essential bonds. 7. Cumulative Time with Children: Christian opened up about the limited cumulative time one gets with their children after they leave home, stressing the importance of making the most of these early, critical years by being present and involved. 8. Metacognition and Self-Awareness During Travel: For frequent travelers, having strong metacognitive skills helps in making conscious, deliberate decisions about how to balance work and personal life, avoiding the pitfalls of being constantly on the move without reflection. 9. Communication and Boundary Setting: Effective communication and clear boundary setting are central to successfully managing the pressure of frequent travel on family life. This includes expressing needs directly and managing expectations both at home and on the road. 10. Encouragement for Personal Growth: The podcast encourages personal growth for both those who travel frequently and their partners, advocating for a dynamic where both parties pursue self-improvement and clear communication to maintain a healthy balance. These insights provide valuable perspectives for frequent travelers on how to navigate the intersection of work demands and personal relationships, advocating for strategies that prioritize family without sacrificing professional aspirations.

If you are in a role supporting staff, I hope this conversation gives you ideas on how and why you need to increase your staff support .

In doing so, they will retain their staff longer. What do some organisations do? What kind of data should organisations track? Why? What can employees do to advocate for themselves?…
Synopsis: Listen to Jenny Butter’s story and learn how she and her husband navigate family life and his frequent work travel. She begins her married life leaving her job and accompanying her husband to Sri Lanka right after the Tsunami hits in 2004. He travels around the country and the region but she is surrounded by other spouses in the same situation. A little while later, they move to New York and have two children born a few months apart. Although culturally New York is closer to her home culture, and Jenny is a go-getter, her husband is still travelling and she feels lonely. Jenny reflects on how she was raised with a father who travelled and that it felt normal to be living a similar family set-up. Jenny's Words of Wisdom: Different marriages normals “I can remember one of my friends once saying to me, “does Jan actually exist? Because we've never met him.” I would go and see my friend when Jan was traveling, because when he was home, we could have that couple time. She was in a marriage where they were always together. They did everything together. They visited people together. I'd never really perceived her norm. She hadn't perceived my norm. And both can be normal, depending on your relationship, you know, I didn't see mine as abnormal. It's just the way it was, because that was a model of my parents." You can be both strong and lonely sometimes " I'm a doer, I'm capable, I just get on with it. But there was one instance where I remember just, like, crying in relief because he told me he wasn't going to Japan because I'd sort of, like, held it together for three weeks when he'd been somewhere else, and it was for a couple of days, then go off somewhere, I was like, oh, thank you. You're not going. I hadn't realized just how hard I was finding it up until that point when the relief just went through me. The fact, actually he wasn't going away again, that he would be home for a couple of weeks." Reentering workforce When I was in radio, it was all social action broadcasting. So it helped people move forward, change their lives in whatever way that would be, getting them out of domestic violence or laying a new skill or raising money. So then I retrained to be a coach, but it worked out really well because I could do it from home. When my children in school and they were young, so they'd be in bed for seven, I could do it in the evenings when people had come home from work, So that's how it started. And then I could do face to face when my husband was home. Otherwise it would be online. So I've been doing twelve years now. And so that's why I had the career change, because I had to do something that's flexible to be the full time carer. Her husband’s involvement now their children are older So he's very good at texting them or sending them messages and things that they might be interested in. So my daughter's a foodie, so wherever he goes, you know, he'll send her photos of the food he's eaten and, you know, what there is in the local supermarkets and that type of thing. And, you know, my son, he loves, you know, I don't know, words and culture and history, so he might send him, you know, something historical so he, he really thinks about what they're, what they're interested in and, you know, try and send them relevant information. On choosing split locations or an expatriation What would the split family location look like (...)? Because I think sometimes it's okay in some seasons and sometimes it's not okay in other seasons. You have to really look at where you are now and think, would this work for us as a family, for our marriage, and as you get older for aging parents, would it work for us in this season of our life? And then going in with the facts and actively choosing it and then knowing what you've chosen and reinforcing those choices. Her message to new parents You having an adventure so it can be fun and exciting and making sure you've got things to look forward to, but also being aware that the toll it might take on your emotional mental health and making sure that you have support systems in place for that, either in country or externally. You know, Zoom counseling, Zoom coaching, support network, because it can be hard, it can be lonely, it can be isolating. No blame "I think it's important to keep an open line of communication, to not blame, but to be honest about how you're feeling and talk about it with your spouse and with your partner, with other people. And I think that's why you have to go into any decision with the facts. If at all possible, it's a joint decision. I know some people don't have that because they're sent with work or they need to go because it's the only job that they could get. But within that, if, as much as possible, if it is a joint decision, because there can sometimes be blame involved and anger which doesn't help people settle or be happy. And so I think it's being responsible for yourself and your own emotions and putting in your own support network and structure and knowing that's important because you are a carer for the small children, but then you are also still a wife and a spouse, and that relationship needs nurturing, too." When he returns from his trips There's certainly no welcome home parties or celebrations because it is just part of our marriage, our life. Her concluding remarks The world is a fun place. It offers so much adventure. When it's hard, it's hard. But when it's wonderful, it's wonderful. Even in the hard times, try and look for the fun, excitement or beauty in your new location because it can just make it a bit easier on those hard days.

Synopsis: Growing up as the child of a minister and a father who was also actively involved in cross-cultural work, had a profound impact on Michael. His father's frequent travels for youth ministry, pastoral duties, and later, more global roles in raising awareness about Third Culture Kids, created a complex dynamic in their family life. While there was a sense of pride and recognition in the meaningful work his father did, it also brought challenges. Michael reflects on the mixed emotions of having to "share" his father with others, often feeling that it wasn't a choice but a necessity. This experience shaped Michael's perspective, giving him an appreciation for the importance of his father's work while also highlighting the personal cost of his absence during key moments of his upbringing.
