How Career Choices Change When Kids are Involved with Jason Kleyn

Episode 16. One of the big tradeoffs we make as parents is how much time to spend with kids and how much to focus on work. In many cases that means a career taking a back seat to the new family, but not always. 

In this episode, host Greg Martin discusses how Jason switched careers upon the birth of his first daughter in hopes that his new line of work would give more time and flexibility for his kids. The tradeoff never ends. As a salesperson and someone growing a brand, he has the constant tradeoff between kids and work.

Throughout the episode the two discuss the things we want for our children and how they see us as parents and people that “work”. Lots of our world changes when we have kids. When you focus on work and you focus on kids there are always dilemmas and it doesn’t leave much else.
