Mothering Wildlife
Telling the stories of moms who work in zoo, wildlife, vet, and conservation organizations. Working with wildlife brings a unique set of challenges for working mothers. Join me weekly as I interview moms working primarily in the zoo field as we discuss their journey as moms, navigating the mental, emotional, and often physical challenges that come with caring for wildlife and caring for kids.

Doing What's Best for You with Allison Malkowski of the Dakota Zoo
We hear so much advice as parents - how much time to take after baby arrives, when to call out from work, etc. However, only you know what you need and what is best for you. And this might be different from the norm! Can we agree as moms and society to let new moms call the shots?! My guest this week. Allison Malkowski, and I talk about exactly this. Use your paid time off when you need it and recognize what you need to help yourself through trying times and ask for it. Work will continue to be there.
