It’s been a minute since you’ve heard from us, but Katherine is excited to share news about the next chapter of The Double Shift, a newsletter and community that’s a social change laboratory for moms. The Double Shift has always been more than a podcast, and we're embracing our membership community as a place for building connections around political, social and workplace change, transforming families and building a more just future for everyone. We believe in:
Solidarity — not advice
Bold ideas — not life hacks
Curiosity — not judgment
Thoughtful research and analysis — not uninformed flame throwing
Membership starts at $7/mo, and members get:
An audio version of the newsletter to listen to on your favorite player
The ability to comment on public posts and members-only private threads
Access to members-only hangouts on Zoom (and in person!)
This is the start of the list. More benefits coming, based on member feedback.

Your paying membership allows this to be one of the very-few non-corporate spaces left on the mom-internet.
To sign up for our revamped newsletter full of reporting about the forces that shape family life in America and challenging the status quo of motherhood, go to thedoubleshift.com/newsletter.
To see all the member benefits, join the community or upgrade your membership go to thedoubleshift.com/join.
If you’d like a donated membership email, askthedoubleshift@gmail.com.
Our next virtual hangout is July 20th at 3pm EST. It’s titled Workplace Revolution w/Erin Grau, who’s the co-founder and COO of Charter Works. To listen to Erin on the Double Shift, listen to "Paid Leave, We Can Do Better," and the followup episode we made about Double Shifters who were galvanized to advocate for better family policies by listening to Erin's story. To celebrate our relaunch, this event is open to all. RSVP here.
