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.

Using Critical Thinking with Self-Compassion: Stephanie's Story
Perfectionism feels like a bad word, but is it? Maybe there is another way to reframe how we think about striving for perfection as professionals and parents that can help us move toward our goals without burning out.
This week we're lucky to be joined by Dr. Stephanie Thrower, a psychologist and career coach who helps working parents break the burnout cycle so they feel more engaged, creative, and connected as professionals and parents. She helps her clients achieve clarity, find purpose, and confidently set boundaries. Dr. Thrower is also a member of our Career Clarity Community and was happy to share with us her experience in the program and how it's helped her to move forward.
Join Becca and Marie as Dr. Thrower helps us flip the script on what it means to be a perfectionist and how greater self-compassion increases resilience and motivation.
