You can ask any parent in the history of the world - having a child changes you. There are the obvious ways it changes you - less sleep, more responsibility, more stress, more love, etc. But, having a child also changes you in a lot of non-obvious ways, namely, the way you think about your career.

When you think about having a baby, you tend to think about the obvious things and how we, as parents, take care of those things. But there is so much below the surface that ends up falling on the default parent, again, mostly moms.
