What is a Wife Worth?It is an age-old question - “What Is a Wife Worth?”  Put another way, is a stay at home mom entitled to half the family's worth when the marriage dissolves? We take up that question in this episode of Stories and Strategies for Women with Author Ann Crittenden and her highly researched, best-selling book, The Price of Motherhood.  The Price of Motherhoodpublished in 2001 and was hailed as a “landmark book” by the San Francisco Chronicle.  Ms Crittenden, former NY Times reporter and a Pulitzer Prize nominee, tackles the subjects of “equitable” and "equal” when it comes to divorce settlements but the book is so much more.  Through researched stories the book chronicles the truth about the price of motherhood.   Specifically, the financial risk a women takes who decides to sacrifice a career to be a full-time mom as well as how she is treated by society in her new role.Did COVID Change Some Minds on the Work That is Stay at Home Parenting?With Covid over the last two years, BOTH parents were working AND taking care of their children together, many times at home.  For the first time in our history in the United States, maybe, both parents were stay at home parents and saw first-hand how difficult it is to raise kids.  Instead of assuming that a stay at home mom's job is easy and she is "lucky" to do it, the reality of the challenge and sacrifice of stay at home parenting is clear.  In the case of a divorce, therefore, the VALUE of the contribution of the stay at home parent MUST be more equal to the earning parent than it has been in the past. Please enjoy this thought-provoking interview on this fascinating and important subject.  I also add some personal thoughts where I try to eradicate the word “lucky” when describing stay at home parenting. I include a personal story with an excerpt from my book, It Gets Easier and Other Lies We Tell New Moms.I would love to hear what YOU think and hear YOUR story. Did you leave a career to stay at home?  How was your transition?  Did you feel respected as an equal with your partner? Did you feel respected in society?

Mothers in this country endure not only judgement and criticism from others but also tangible financial consequences for their decisions. Whether they choose to stay home with their children (a 24/7 job valued by the market at zero), try to return to work after a gap, or even remain childless, ALL women of childbearing age face pay gaps, discrimination, and lost wages. In this episode, Dr. Green talks with former economics reporter to the NY Times, Pulitzer Prize Nominee, and best-selling author Ann Crittenden. Together, they discuss the true cost, both to women and to society, of the underappreciated and completely unpaid labor of motherhood. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Cait & Katie discuss the special interviews with Ann Crittenden and Emma Johnson, and break down some of the realities about the labor of mothering, parenting with and without a partner, burnout, policy, and what might have to happen in America for things to actually change.

In this special interview, Cait talks to journalist and economist Ann Crittenden, whose book The Price of Motherhood changed her perspective on new motherhood. Brace yourself for a discussion about the value our country puts (or doesn't put) on women's traditional work, the (still pervasive) “mommy tax,” how the statistics about how moms are faring in America are as bad (or worse) as they were 20 years ago… and how hoards of grannies might be the ones to save the day.

What would the actual price of motherhood be? How much money would your mom make if she were paid to raise you?

What would the actual price of motherhood be? How much money would your mom make if she were paid to raise you?

Elle and I chat about relationship anarchy and finding baby-raising nesting partners. Non monogamy and coparenting are definitely things that can work together. Enjoy our lively conversation and possibly the dulcet sounds of my trying to discreetly eat an orange while recording. We talk about time allocation and how hard these issues can be to navigate as a woman. We briefly discuss how the gender pay gap is getting to a point where it’s almost entirely due to motherhood. In equal partnerships where both share domestic duties rather than assuming it’s the woman’s job (think “I have to go do some dishes rather than I have to go help my wife with the dishes”), even in those equal partnerships, the man will go to work and if it’s known he’s a father, he’ll make a little more than men and women in the workplace. The mother, however, will go to work and make significantly less than her non mother female coworkers. I’ve included a link as I find it both horrible and fascinating. We also recorded a session about dream living arrangements and forming intentional non monogamous communities, and we’ll tackle that topic in a few weeks if you’re a patreon. For now, I’m excited to have Elle back to discuss non monogamy and how it intersects with parenting. Resources NYTimes: The Gender Pay Gap is Largely Because of Motherhood See the study below, page 39 figure A vs figure B of this study from Denmark. Look at page 39 figure D to see the wage rate and how mothers 20 years after having their first child are paid less even when you take into consideration hours worked and that motherhood in its immediate demands are behind them. It’s also possible that when paid less, people choose to work fewer hours; so it’s a bad assumption (especially 10-20 years later) that working fewer hours is necessarily why people are paid less, especially when they proportionally more hours as evidenced by page 39 figure D. “if a college-educated woman has one child, she will lose about a million dollars in lifetime earnings. I didn't have my child until I was over 40, and I already had a number of years working. But my Mommy Tax is close to a million.” - Ann Crittenden

“Women don’t recognize how valuable what they bring to the table actually is” In today’s episode, we decided to tackle a topic that we’ve mentioned in a lot of other threads. It’s such an important topic in the conversation of modern business, and we believe that this episode will truly help women step into their true value and full potential. “I Am Valuable” With women, in particular, value is at the core of most challenges in business. From pricing to leadership to setting boundaries to how we communicate through our marketing, everything boils down to whether or not we truly value ourselves. In my experience, women consistently undervalue themselves, their gifts and what they bring to the table.   “Stop Personalizing What is Systemically Broken” This is a personal issue and systemic issue. Systemically, we are constantly told that the qualities we possess as women are less valuable than those possessed by men. This is reflected in how we are compensated, treated, and valued by those around us. It isn’t just in the corporate world. It can show up with our family members, clients and community. This is a systemic problem, but the first step is valuing ourselves. This was the core topic in my TEDx talk, Moving Beyond #Empowerment. “Every moment that you are not valuing yourself, you are trapping yourself. You are compensating for this lack of value, and allowing all of these ideas in the world tell you what you’re worth. That is a trap, and what you’re losing is freedom.” In this episode, you’ll find some amazing insights and tips that will help you take back your freedom and recognise how valuable you are just by breathing. Some Topics we talk about in this episode: Introduction - 1:15 Examples of Issues with Value - 2:45 Reframing our Value - 9:30 What is it Costing Us to Not Value Ourselves? - 14:45 Intention vs Practice when Running a Business - 18:05 Some Reference Points for Recognising your Value- 23:35 The Wisdom of Awareness - 27:15 The Power of Your Own Body - 28:58 Find Your Community - 33:10 Books mentioned in this episode - The Price of Motherhood by Ann Crittenden https://www.amazon.com/Price-Motherhood-Important-World-Valued/dp/0312655401 How to get involved Join the Women in the Business Arena Group on Facebook and continue the discussion starting next week! https://www.facebook.com/groups/womeninthebusinessarena Reach out to us - we’d love to hear more about where you’re at in life and business!
