Career Growth for Working Moms | Career Advancement, Overwhelm, Clarity, Visibility, Burnout Recovery
Do you feel stuck in a job you’ve outgrown, but fear making the wrong move?
Torn between being present for your kids and showing up fully at work?
Is financial stress the only thing keeping you in a job you don’t love?
Wishing someone could just help you figure out your next best career step—without all the guesswork and guilt?
You’re in the right place.
This podcast is for ambitious women who want to grow their careers without sacrificing their families—or themselves.
Hey, I’m Shannon - a Career Coach, wife, and mom of two. I’ve been where you are: stuck in burnout, unsure of what’s next, and juggling all the things.
For years, I pushed through jobs that didn’t fit—trying to “do it all” while slowly losing myself.
Everything changed when I discovered my natural strengths and finally started showing up as my authentic self.
I built a successful career and coaching program around helping other working moms do the same—and now I’m sharing what I’ve learned right here with you.
Each week, you’ll get simple, actionable steps to grow your career with confidence, reclaim your time, and align your work with your life—not the other way around.
Grab your coffee (or reheat it for the third time), put in your earbuds, and let’s take the next step—together.

70 | Authentic Leadership: How to Lead Without Losing Yourself
We don’t wake up one morning and decide to lose ourselves.
It happens slowly — every time we mute an idea that feels “too bold,” swallow an opinion to keep the peace, or smile through exhaustion so no one knows we’re struggling.
Before we realize it, we’re leading from a version of ourselves that’s palatable… but not powerful.
In this episode of Career Growth for Working Moms, Shannon gets real about what it means to lead without losing yourself — and the subtle ways working moms drift away from authenticity in pursuit of approval, perfection, and balance.
Through personal stories, coaching insights, and gentle truth-telling, you’ll uncover why you’ve been performing instead of leading — and how to start reconnecting with your real leadership voice.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ The three hidden traps that cause high-achieving women to lose their authentic voice
✅ What authentic leadershipactually looks like (and why it’s not a buzzword)
✅ 3 daily choices that bring your leadership back into alignment
✅ How to reconnect with your natural leadership style — Boss Lady, Charismatic Queen, Heart-Centered Guide, or Visionary Brainiac — and what authenticity looks like for you
People don’t follow perfect leaders — they follow real ones.
You don’t have to do more to lead well.
You just have to be more you.
