#S02 Episode 3: Laura Falcon (Canada)
A new podcast episode is out!
Listen to the conversation with Laura, a senior project manager and loving mom from Vancouver - Canada.🎧
The MIC traveled all the way to Vancouver to talk to Laura Falcon. Laura has a degree in psychology but fell into the world of construction. Today she's a senior project manager for a mechanical insulation company. Next to her busy job, she's a wife and loving mom to her eleven-year-old son, Jonah, who has special needs.
"I go from being a senior project manager to basically a housekeeper, teacher, and problem solver."
For Laura, organizing is more important than ever. As she works long days, preparation and planning are key. You'll never find her without her daily planner by her side.
"In Vancouver, everybody commutes in some way shape, or form. It’s very common that both parents are working full-time. Another thing we find common is multi-generational families in the same home."
Listen to the podcast and learn more about the Canadian way of living. Laura shares her personal opinion and experiences when it comes to their work-life balance and quality of life.

Or watch on Youtube:
What about alone time? Laura has to commute an hour to get to work. She uses this time in her car in the middle of Vancouver traffic to "stew on things, she needs to stew on". By the time she's home, she has left work behind.
Listen to the podcast to get some insights into how Laura organizes her life as a busy mom, and which tools she implemented into her daily life to make it as structured as possible.

TALKING SIZES
Having difficulty choosing between the Pyramid and the slightly smaller-sized Midi Pyramid?
This blog page highlights all the differences.
Find the size that is right for you.
You are looking for a work bag? Good!
Both sizes are built for work life, with dedicated compartments for your laptop and all other office essentials so you will never forget your valuables again. Commute or travel in peace thanks to the zipper closure that keeps your belongings safe and secure.
The key question: how big is your laptop?
The Pyramid fits laptops up to 15.6 inches (diagonal screen size) with a maximum horizontal width of 14.1 inches, while the Midi Pyramid fits laptops up to 13.5 inches (diagonal screen size) with a maximum horizontal width of 12.8 inches.
Because screen borders vary by brand, we recommend measuring your laptop's physical width rather than going by screen size alone.

Choose the Midi Pyramid if you carry a laptop with a width up to 12.8 inch and the everyday essentials — phone, wallet, chargers, and the occasional A4 notepad or folder. Everything fits, without the extra weight.
Choose the Pyramid if you work on a wider laptop or regularly carry multiple files and folders.
One thing to keep in mind: a bigger bag tends to get heavier, because more space means more things. Women under 5'4" in the #KAAICOMMUNITY often prefer the Midi Pyramid for exactly that reason: a KAAI bag should make your day easier, not heavier.
