Description
For over a decade, Emily Tisch Sussman was one of the top political strategists in the country, advising Democratic candidates and campaigns. Then, after having three children in four years, and faced with no childcare during a global pandemic, Emily realized she couldn’t get back to the top of her game… or back in the game at all. So, she stepped away from politics and the professional identity she had known for 15 years. Now, after going through her own major pivot, she’s talking to other women about their career journeys on the 'She Pivots' podcast.
In this episode, shares:
The line she used that got her every job she’s had
Why she wrote an article saying her children “killed” her career – and how she felt after writing it
Why she wasn’t connecting to the traditional narratives around being a working mother
Her advice for women who’ve also had to shift their professional identities
What it'll take for politicians to pass policies that better support families
