I plan on starting a family someday and I HATE how much dread I feel in my soul over how that decision might impact my career.
I know that's wrong, but this country doesn't exactly inspire confidence that it'll be okay. Too many stories. 
Although sociologists might say it’s myopic to put short term goals or even survival before posterity, we can’t help that it would make more sense to have babies when we don’t have student loan bills to pay or have enough disposable income to pay for childcare. When we turn 40.

What's potentially selfish (and stupid privileged) is I'm more focused on getting into a role I want first
but perhaps that's just as pointless. -
You should be able to get that role and also be a mom if you want to be a mom. This is our...cross to bear? Is that a problematic statement?
