🎬 What I Wish I Knew Before Becoming a Mom in This Industry I wish someone had told me this earlier. If you’re a mom in film & media — or thinking about becoming one — what’s one thing you wish you’d known before motherhood and this career collided? It could be about: - hours and energy - money and trade-offs - childcare realities - boundaries on set - career momentum - guilt (or the lack of it) - what actually matters in the long run No advice columns. No fixing. Just real experiences that might help another mom feel less alone — or more prepared. I’ll start in the comments. 💬👇
