"Use Your Words": Career Lessons from Parenting Part 2 Artwork

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 mom) Becca Carnahan of Next Chapter Careers takes your questions and provides practical step-by-step advice to help you move forward. All served up with a virtual mom hug and lots of laughs!

The countdown to When Mommy Grows Up: Finding Career Clarity While Covered in Kids (the book) is on! This week we're diving into chapter 5, Use Your Words.

We teach our kids to use their words instead of lashing out in anger, pouting in the corner, or throwing an epic tantrum in Target. But are we reminding ourselves to use our words as we look for more fulfillment in our work?

Tune in for toddler parenting stories, Spice Girls lyrics, and advice on how to have the important conversations that will move your career in the direction you want!
