The Book: Pregnant then Screwed
In this Mother of All Solutions episode Laura and friends from her book group share notes on the book Pregnant then Screwed: The Truth About the Motherhood Penalty and How To Fix It by Joeli Brearley.
With guest Kate Burt, Laura talks about this book (published March 2021) and how as author Joeli Brearley states, “This book is a call to arms for women.” With audio contributions from other members of book club we share sections of the book and our own experiences of work and motherhood.
We hope you enjoy listening and we hope you enjoy the book too – as Kate ends, “It’s a textbook but doesn’t read like a textbook!” The book is full of data and case studies about pregnancy and maternity discrimination, the motherhood penalty and solutions.
