**Quick heads up: this episode has a lot of background noise because my daughter was home sick with me while I was recording.
In this special pre-Thanksgiving episode of 9 to 5 Mom with a Pod, I’m taking you behind the Instagram reel everyone saw today, the “perfect” New York business lunch with my coach, and sharing what was really happening off camera. From the moment I left Jersey, I was juggling anxiety about being far from my daughter, and sure enough… the dreaded “Pre-K” call popped up on my phone right as my food hit the table.
