‘Baby Marshall you are so lucky’: Zoe went on to say that while her child is still young, she plans to limit her work to one day a week, and that her workplace has been overly supportive
‘People are probably rolling their eyes right now going ”she has no idea what’s coming” and maybe I’ll have a nervous breakdown. All of these things are options and I have a goal. If I can achieve it, great, if I can’t, I won’t do it.’
