There is a reason some people seem to close every deal, land every promotion, and build networks that open doors for decades. It is not because they have the best resume or the sharpest pitch deck.

You can plan for a baby the way you plan for any major life investment. You open the savings account, compare health insurance plans, calculate maternity leave down to the day, and build a spreadsheet that accounts for diapers, daycare, and the occasional splurge on a really good stroller. You feel prepared. Financially responsible. Ready. […]
