The Big Flip: Tips for Managing When Mom Works, Dad Stays Home
Posted in: UncategorizedI gave birth four times over a four-year period, and during that time, I launched two Silicon Valley startups. Now, I am the CMO at Neustar, leading a major brand transformation.
I get asked all the time, “How do you do it?” And my answer is always, “I have an amazing husband.” My husband, Sheldon, is a “home guardian” or full-time, stay-at-home-dad. This set-up is now being called “The Big Flip,” which is the same title given to a documentary and book project for which I am an advisor.
