We promise, it will lift your spirits, make you laugh and think, and deeply connect you to your experience and the experience of other working mothers. The Working Mother Experience inspires ambitious women to honestly and creatively share what it means to work and mother. Our goal is to collect and compile 250 pieces of individual art, painted by working mothers around the globe, to showcase the richness and diversity of what it means to mother and work.

Episode #60: "Finding the Person You Are Amidst the Mess" with Karemi Dye-Wilson, Nurse, Artist, Homeschooler, and Mother

September 14, 2025 • Working Mother Experience

My conversation with Karemi was so fascinating, we had to do it in two parts - one conversation wasn't enough.

Karemi shares her journey as a mother of four, former delivery nurse, the transition to homeschooling and how beneficial it has been for her family, and her connection to nature through her garden. Karemi also dives into her experience supporting one of her children and family navigate cancer and, her own recent journey with cancer.

I was struck by Karemi's grace, and her thoughtful, humble reflections. She seems to take everything in stride, moving like water through the endless twists and turns of life. Perhaps it is the intentionality behind her decisions that help enable this mindset and fluidity, the trust that she and her husband are making the right choices to best support their family.

Thank you, Karemi, for sharing your wisdom with us and inspiring others to consider their choices and perhaps, become more intentional in their thoughts, energetics and actions.
