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!

Asking for What You Need: Kristen’s Story
Kristen is a mom of 2 and has been with her company for the past 5 years. Her kids are now in 4th and 2nd grade and she is finding herself stressed all the time. In reading the highlights of the Surgeon General’s Advisory, Kristen found herself nodding along to every stressor facing parents today - finances, safety, mental health, loneliness - the list went on.
When she reached out to us for support (and we’re so glad she did) Kristen found that while stress wasn’t going to go away overnight, there were things she could do to positively impact her well-being and that of her family.
