About this episode

The episode discusses the identity shift experienced by working mothers and the balance between career and family life.

Can you love your work and love your children without constantly feeling like one has to come at the expense of the other? In this week’s podcast, I’m speaking with Rebecca Olson, executive life coach, speaker, and host of the Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms podcast, about the identity shift many women experience when they become mothers. We talk about the guilt that can come with loving your career, the pressure to be constantly available to your children, and the grief many women feel when motherhood changes their freedom, priorities, and sense of self. This is a grounded conversation about motherhood, ambition, identity, and what it means to create a life that makes room for both family and meaningful work. If you’ve ever felt torn between the two, tune in to this important episode.
