15 Minutes to a Better Resume (Yes, Really!) 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!

If your resume has been sitting untouched for years and you don’t even know where to start…this episode is for you.

Today on When Mommy Grows Up, we’re doing a practical, step-by-step 15-minute resume audit designed especially for moms re-entering the workforce, pivoting careers, or updating a very outdated document.

We’ll cover:

How to turn task-based bullet points into measurable impact
How to stop minimizing your leadership
What to do about a “resume gap”
How to align your resume with the job you actually want
And how to rewrite your summary so it reflects the confident, next-level version of you

Because most resume problems aren’t formatting problems, they’re positioning problems. And you’re not behind. You’re not starting from scratch. You’re starting from experience.

Grab your resume and let’s get to work.
