The many competing demands of the working mom

The issues and obstacles faced by working mothers are Beth Polin’s focus in this debut of her new ES series on working moms. EKU Business Professor James Kirby Easterling joins us to connect supply chain issues with consumer inflation. We get some insights about those personality tests from UK Clinical Psychologist Shannon Sauer-Zavala. Tom Eblen explores Katarina Stoyokova’s poetic bridge between her home country of Bulgaria and her new life in Kentucky.
