13. Work From Home Isn’t Killing Your Career | Let’s Be Honest About Having It All
Episode 13
Monday, 27 April, 2026
Work from home is a career killer for women? I disagree a thousand percent. In this episode, I’m challenging the idea that ambition has to come at the expense of your mental health, your time, or your identity. I’m talking about my experience in corporate America as a Black woman, the invisible labor that comes with being in office, what the research actually says about remote work and productivity, and who the “three hour mom” narrative really applies to. Because not all advice is universal, and success should not require you to lose yourself in the process.Stats mentioned:Code switching can cost Black professionals 2–3 hours of mental energy daily (Harvard Business Review, 2019) 64% of Black employees experience at least one racial microaggression per week (McKinsey & Company, 2023) Black women reported a 31% improvement in psychological well-being when working remotely (American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2022) Remote and hybrid work reduced racial microaggressions by 42% for Black women (SHRM, 2023)Remote workers show a 13% increase in productivity (Stanford Business, 2020)87% of employees report being equally or more productive working from home (Microsoft WorkLab)Remote and hybrid workers report higher engagement than fully in-office employees (Gallup, 2023)In this episode, we cover:Why the “work from home is a career killer” narrative ignores what Black women actually experienceThe real cost of code switching, and why the office is not a neutral spaceWhy being seen at work still doesn’t guarantee being consideredHow communication bias shows up in emails and perceptionThe truth about the “three hour mom” – and what it actually requiresWhat the data really says about productivity at homeWhy you need to be selective about whose advice you followHosted by Chancé Hindir-Lane, Selfish Parenting is the honest, empowering podcast that challenges the myth of self-sacrifice in motherhood.
