Speaker 1: I would love to be a full time mom at
Speaker 1: some point, but I think the anxiety of what if
Speaker 1: I get bored? What if I want to return to
Speaker 1: the workforce, What does that even mean? What does that
Speaker 1: look like? You know, as the morning anchor, viewers want
Speaker 1: to see a beauty queen. So I'm pranktic now I've
Speaker 1: gained like forty pounds. I knew it would be an issue.
Speaker 1: The Paycheck is back for a second season, and this
Speaker 1: time we're talking about the one thing that hurts women's
Speaker 1: earnings more than anything else, motherhood. As I was campaigning
Speaker 1: for the Senate, I felt like I was leaving my
Speaker 1: daughter behind. I learned the hard way that there is
Speaker 1: no work life balance. We're going to investigate what happens
Speaker 1: to women's paychecks, their lives, and the global economy when
Speaker 1: women choose to have kids or don't. Wages have effectively
Speaker 1: remained flat, while the cost of childcare it has gone
Speaker 1: up nearly a thousand per cent, and it does lead
Speaker 1: young people to have a legitimate question, is it okay
Speaker 1: to still have children? The Paychecks new season starts April ten.
