How to Build a Career That Actually Fits Your Life with Lauren Dietz
About this episode
Paulina Roe and Lauren Dietz discuss how motherhood impacts career paths and the valuable skills moms gain that can enhance their professional lives.
This week on The Mami Collective Podcast , Paulina sits down with Lauren Dietz to talk about something a lot of moms quietly stress about: what your career looks like after kids. If you’ve ever felt like motherhood derailed your professional path or made you question your place in the workforce, this conversation is for you. Lauren shares how the skills you build as a mom — managing chaos, prioritizing, negotiating, problem-solving — are not a setback, but actually some of the most valuable professional skills you can have. Together, Paulina and Lauren talk about career pivots, reentering the workforce, finding flexible work that actually fits your life, and why so many women underestimate their own experience. This episode is a reminder that you’re not starting over — you’re starting from experience. If you’ve been wondering what’s next for your career after kids, this conversation will help you see your path a little more clearly.
