When Mommy Grows Up
As moms, we love to inspire our kids to dream big dreams about who they’ll be as they grow up. But when is the last time you stopped to ask yourself, "Who am I going to be (next) as I grow up?"
The When Mommy Grows Up Podcast is the motherhood and career podcast for moms who need help defining what success looks like to them as mid-career professionals and parents, along with the support they need to go after it.
Hear real stories from real moms facing the same challenges you are. Finding flexible jobs, crafting a job you love, discovering your passions, crushing it at work and getting kids off the bus! We’ll talk through it all.
Hosts (and fellow moms) Becca Carnahan and Marie Tremblay of Next Chapter Careers, take your questions and provide practical step-by-step advice to help you move forward. All served up with a virtual mom hug and lots of laughs!
Send your stories and questions to podcast@nextchaptercareers.us.

Finding Your Career Match as an Extrovert: Emma's Story
As far introverted as our friend Abby was from last week, Emma is about as far as you can get in the other direction. She’s an extrovert with a capital E and as a mom of three kids she loves nothing more than welcoming new families to the community, standing up in front of a crowd, and mingling at work events.
Emma’s great at her job in HR specializing in new employee onboarding, and going into the office every day works for her and her personality. At the same time, Emma is struggling with the commute and the time away from her kids. She feels like she is doing work that aligns with her interests, but it doesn’t align with her life. Should she quit?
Join Becca and Marie to talk about finding family-centered flexibility in your career without ditching your extroverted personality or stepping out of the paid workforce.
