In this episode, host Jen Joly talks with fellow working mom Lindsay Hughes about the extraordinary journey of raising a child with Pulmonary Vein Stenosis. The conversation traces Lindsay’s path from her daughter's premature birth at just 24 weeks (and her own traumatic preeclampsia experience) through life in the NICU, ongoing medical crises, and the realities of long-term caregiving.
Together, Jen and Lindsay explore the emotional highs and lows of parenting a medically complex child—while also managing demanding careers. They discuss the importance of flexible employers, the role of state insurance, and the quiet strength it takes to juggle it all. With personal insights from both women, this episode is a powerful testament to resilience, advocacy, and the support that comes from shared experience.
