Popular Netflix series Workin' Moms has come out with its final season and those who have religiously followed the lives of Kate Foster and her group of mum friends are sorry to see it end. Full of light-hearted and dark humour, and a host of inappropriate antics, the show is more than just a hoot and a laugh.

Here are 5 things that Workin' Moms can teach you — even if you are not a mum.

Girl clans are important

If there's one thing this painfully relatable series can teach you, it is the importance of a girl clan. Time and again, these friends are put in situations that threaten their work, rock their personal relationships, or make them question their decisions. At each stage, the friends have come through for one another- buoying each other up, holding hands through scary times, and understanding the struggles of one another more acutely.

Being genuine is better than being nice

Kate, Anne, and the rest of the gang rarely have much peace at a stretch. The overwhelmingly honest show regularly throws its leads in testy situations where they have to navigate their personal and professional lives. They often find themselves juggling biases, feeling overconfident or even in denial about things, and more often than not, the show has one or more friends giving the other a reality check. While this may feel blunt, or painful even, not once has the check been given rudely or with malintent.

Life is not a well-scheduled plan

Working mothers will agree that sticking to plans is as important as oxygen, but life rarely shows any respect for painstakingly made schedules. Babies will fall sick, teenagers will act out, and partners and friends will fall out right before a work deadline. Despite everything, the girls manage to bounce back and work out a Plan B for themselves and so can you.

You can do it all, but not all at once

Mostly all the female leads in this show have high-flying careers or problems at work. Kate runs her own PR firm, Anne is a psychiatrist, Sloane is a coveted book publisher, and Jenny is struggling to keep her job. Despite that, they manage to have wholesome moments with their children and/or partners, but not without support. While at some point in their lives, they all feel as if they can juggle it all, life shows them how to navigate each slump and high with grace.

You are not perfect

As strong individuals who have members of the family looking up to us, we often make the mistake of holding ourselves to a ridiculously high standard. Humans (including mothers) make mistakes, but uncomfortable as they are, there is not one mistake that does not come with a lesson. The series normalises difficult situations between parents and children, and brings to its viewers, a fair share of gut-wrenching realisations, apologies, and opportunities for tough growth.
