When She Pivots
You have the degree(s), the career, and maybe the family, but is something missing? Have you been ticking all the boxes but find yourself asking, “Now what” or “What’s next”? Do you wish you had a community to support you in figuring out how to take things to the next level (or figure out what the next level is)?
Welcome to When She Pivots! We’re two mamas navigating professional, personal, and perspective shifts hoping to give ourselves and others the permission to think and dream bigger. With Cassie’s experience as a lawyer currently in the non-profit space, and Lauren’s as a former teacher turned entrepreneur, we hope to create a space where women can authentically share and learn from others who are even just one step ahead - working to normalize this kind of self-exploration with curiosity and openness instead of fear and judgment.
What if it’s actually possible to build your truest most beautiful life AND still show up fully for ourselves and those we love?

Building a Life That Fits with Dr. Shara Downey
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Shara Downey to talk about what it looks like to build a life guided by values rather than certainty.
Shara reflects on her journey as a chiropractor, entrepreneur, and mother, and the courage it takes to make big transitions — including relocating internationally — without having every step mapped out. She shares how lived experience has shaped the way she leads, makes decisions, and builds a business that supports the life she wants.
This conversation explores embodied leadership, trusting yourself through change, and choosing alignment over urgency.
We cover:
- Trusting yourself through major life transitions
- Relocating internationally and starting fresh
- Building a values-aligned business
- Motherhood and leadership
- Making decisions without a rigid plan
- Choosing alignment over urgency
Join us for a conversation about trusting yourself, choosing alignment, and building a life that actually fits.
