Women and Work
The workplace can feel very different for women than for men. Women often feel they have to prove themselves, that they’re evaluated by how they look, or that their opinions are not respected. They feel Mom Guilt for leaving their kids while they pursue a career and worry about taking a job that fuels their passion instead of their pocketbook. We examine these real life challenges of women who are climbing the corporate ladder, growing their own business, and navigating the complex juggle of work and family. We explore how women like you can make work fit your life, not the other way around.

Women and Work: Brittney Keller
In this episode, we talk with Brittney Keller, a marketing leader and mom of two, about navigating leadership in a male-dominated industry while balancing the complex demands of working parenthood. From being mistaken for an intern in her first job to growing into a trusted expert who leads paid media teams, Brittney shares the pivotal moments that helped her find her voice—and her value.
She opens up about the emotional toll of not being taken seriously early in her career, and how supportive mentors helped her shift from frustration to confidence. We also dive into her return-to-work journey after maternity leave, including a powerful story about negotiating benefits while newly pregnant—and the impact of honest conversations with a female boss.
From pushing past self-doubt to mentoring other women today, Brittney offers insights into what it takes to lead with authenticity, ask for what you need, and still be home in time for bedtime stories.
