As Mother's Day approaches, the above view video asks: Is it possible to be a great mom and have an excellent career? This problem has bothered filmmaker Shaina Feinberg.
Before Ms. Feinberg was born, her mother dreamed of a successful acting career and then gave up those dreams to raise her daughter. The loss still haunts her mother.
Now it’s her mother herself, Ms. Feinberg faces the same dilemma: Should she quit her job as a filmmaker and become a full-time mom? Or continue to do “work that both are frustrating”?
The Universe is unlikely to answer her in the form of 90-year-old director and actress Joan Darling. She was the first woman to be nominated for the coaching Emmy Award. Unlike Ms. Feinberg's mother, she never had children.
A freelancer job has been lucky enough to associate Ms. Feinberg with Ms. Darling during the pandemic. This opportunity encountered thrilled the couple to meet in person.
From there, Ms. Darling became Ms. Feinberg's life coach for unexpected work and maternity. When Ms. Feinberg began her journey of learning how to be a career woman and a mom at the same time, they spent several days shooting and playing.
