What leadership can learn from Mother’s Day My wife is amazing. She has a demanding full-time job, shows up for our daughters in all the ways that matter, is there for me, her own mother, our extended family and friends — she’s my best friend, the first person I want to share good news with, and the one I want to spend my free time with. She’s my partner in all of it. And a lot of what she does goes unnoticed. Not because it isn’t valued — but because it’s not always visible.
