Please stop.
Stop being the note taker (including on the whiteboard), so you can focus on making the points, not capturing others.
Stop being the assigner of all follow-ups and just focus on acing what you are assigned to follow-up on.
Stop doing the office housework of coordinating meetings or setting up coffee, so you can focus on doing your actual work.
As a working mom (especially during a pandemic), you already have enough on your plate.
