  • E17: Just Because I Don’t Have Kids Doesn’t Mean I’m Always Available
    Apr 17 2025

    Setting Boundaries & Building Empathy for the Child-Free Experience at Work

    ✨ Episode Description:

    In this episode, we explore the unique and often overlooked experiences of child-free women in the workplace.

    Guest host La’Nita Green sits down with Kas Rigas, a seasoned communications executive and former Head of Communications at Maserati, for a candid conversation about navigating assumptions, setting limits, and advocating for yourself—without guilt.

    As more women choose not to have children or delay parenthood, workplace culture hasn't fully caught up. There's often an unspoken belief that child-free women have more time, and are therefore expected to take on more work or stay later. This episode is about naming that reality, creating healthy boundaries, and building empathy across the board—whether you're child-free, a parent, or somewhere in between.

    💬 Featuring:

    La’Nita Green is a communications strategist with over 15 years of experience helping leaders and organizations connect with employees, consumers, and communities. She’s also a writer, podcast contributor, and advocate for voices that are too often overlooked.

    Kas Rigas is a communications executive with global leadership experience, including roles at major firms and luxury brands. She’s a former manager of Erika’s, a mentor, and a self-described recovering workaholic with powerful insights from both a manager and employee perspective.

    🧭 In This Episode:

    • Why remote work blurred the lines—and how to reclaim your time
    • What to do when you’re seen as “always available”
    • How to advocate for yourself with managers (without feeling like a problem)
    • Balancing eagerness with sustainability
    • Tools for prioritization and setting “hard” vs “soft” boundaries

    🙌 If you’ve ever felt the pressure to do more just because you don’t have kids—this one’s for you.

    And if you’re a leader or teammate, it’s also a call to build a more thoughtful, equitable workplace for everyone.
