Evie Squires is the Founder of 'Mother of All Jobs'. She works with a wide range of clients, from purpose-driven start-ups to household names, connecting them with brilliant parents who are looking for flexible and fulfilling careers.

Alongside Evie's agency and job board, she has built a community and created resources that empower parents to navigate work and family life with confidence. As a mum of two toddlers, Evie is passionate about reshaping the world of work so that parenthood is seen as a strength, not a setback.

WARNING: From 33 minutes and 20 seconds to 33 minutes and 55 seconds I speak about Father Christmas, so beware of listening around little ones.

In this episode we speak about:

• a bit about Evie and the work she does
• Evie's hobbies and her love of sport
• redundancy in early parenthood — and how common it is
• the juggles of work and parenting and the WHY behind Evie's work
• the significance of our EMOTIONAL CV* (see below)
• the invisible load we can hold as Mums and why flexible working — and more trusting of employees — can make such a difference
• Dads, paternity leave and the culture in some workplaces
• the lack of integrity we can experience when applying for work — and a shocking reply I had, saying I was too old for the role (ha, bullet dodged!)
• Evie's free templates and jobs board (see links below)

We mention *Shahroo Izadi and Alex Lloyd Hunter, co-founder of The Dad Shift.
