If you’re a high-achieving working mum who feels constantly on edge, guilty or tired of holding everything together, this one is for you.

I explain the real reason you feel overwhelmed, why “balance” keeps failing you, and how identity-led resilience can help you feel calmer, more present, and more like yourself again.

Instead of ways to keep your New Year's Resolutions as we start 2026, walk away with a practical tool you can use today to reduce overwhelm and strengthen your sense of self so that you can become the woman you long to be this year.

After two years and over 100 episodes, I am pressing pause on The Resilient Working Mum podcast not from a place of burnout or boredom but from a place of calm and certainty and clarity!

In this honest episode, I share why resilience is about having the capacity — mentally, physically, and emotionally — to walk the tightrope of life with strength and intention.

I opens up about my own journey through the Good Girl and Achiever identities, and how reclaiming my true identity has helped me let go of pressure, perfectionism, and performance-based worth. I also share what’s coming next: new tools, continued support, and exciting ways for you to keep building your resilience even while the podcast takes a break.

In this episode, you’ll Learn:

• Why real resilience is not about bouncing back — it’s about preparing for and adapting to challenge
• How internal balance helps you cope with stress and pressure
• What it looks like to step away from false identities and choose what truly matters
• Why I am pausing the podcast — and how I am still showing up for you in new, powerful ways

Here’s how to stay connected and supported while the podcast is on break:

Thank you for listening — and for doing the hard and beautiful work of becoming the calm, confident, resilient woman you’re meant to be.

See you in your inbox...and back on the mic in January 2026.

As a high-performing working mom, it’s easy to tie your worth to how much you do — how productive you are, how much you achieve, how many boxes you tick. But what if your true value has nothing to do with your output?

In this high-energy, fun guest episode, we’re diving deep into the topic of internal confidence — the kind that doesn’t rely on praise, performance, or perfection. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your sense of self-worth, so you can stop chasing validation and start leading from a place of calm, clarity, and grounded confidence.

Whether you’re navigating life in a demanding corporate role, returning from maternity leave, or just trying to keep up with the pace of modern motherhood — this episode will help you redefine success from the inside out.

This is a must-listen for any working mom who’s tired of doing more and still feeling like it’s not enough. You are not your to-do list. You are not your job title. You are enough — and this episode will remind you why.

Feeling pulled in a million directions? In this final 'reminder' episode, we’re revisiting a powerful conversation from the archives on multitasking vs. single tasking — and why switching between tasks could be one of the biggest drains on your productivity, wellbeing, and even your confidence.

If you're a high-achieving working mom juggling back-to-back meetings, emails, parenting, and the endless mental load, this episode will help you understand why multitasking isn't a badge of honour — it's a fast track to burnout.

You'll learn:

• Why your brain isn't wired to multitask (and what it costs you when you try)
• How single-tasking can help you feel calmer, clearer, and more focused
• The surprising link between focus and emotional resilience
• Simple, doable shifts to start reclaiming your time, energy, and attention

Whether you're navigating corporate life, leading a team, or just trying to get through the workday without losing your mind — this episode is your permission slip to do less, better.

If you love this episode, share it with another working mum who’s ready to break free from the chaos.

Many of us find it very difficult to deal with conflict, whether that be in our personal or our professional lives. And yet, conflict is an inevitable part of a relationship where two individuals with their own thoughts, views and identities come together.

Michelle Purta talks to me about how we can see conflict from a different perspective and that while we cannot avoid it, we can avoid arguing and can build healthy marriages rather than feeling stressed and overwhelmed by these relationships.

Michelle is a marriage coach, host of The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast, and married mom of 3. Like many of us, she did not grow up with a healthy model for relationships and experienced a lot of challenges with her significant others and these challenges were heightened after she became a mom. After learning the key foundational tools to having a healthy marriage, she now helps couples learn how to help their marriage thrive after kids and how to work through the common challenges couples face once they become parents such as communication issues, resentment and feeling more like co-parenting roommates rather than a romantic couple.

Do you ever catch yourself comparing your career, your parenting, or your life to someone else's—and instantly feel behind, not good enough, or overwhelmed? You’re not the only one.

In this great episode from the archives, we unpack why comparison is so common for working mums and how it quietly chips away at our confidence and peace of mind. You'll learn how to gently step out of the comparison spiral and into a greater sense of ease, presence, and self-trust.

I tell you a little more about how this work is deepened inside my group coaching programme, Resilient, where working mums build the mindset and emotional tools to feel calm, grounded, and clear—regardless of what others are doing.

If you’re ready to stop measuring yourself against impossible standards and start feeling more at ease in your own life, this one’s for you.

How often do you do something and look back on it thinking ‘I wish I had more control’ or ‘I wish I didn’t react to things so easily’? In this conversation with author and wellness commentator, Holly Swenson, we talk about how you can shift from that reactive way of doing things to being able to choose how you respond so that you can carry less guilt about your behaviour and can live your life with, as Holly says, more ‘poise’, feeling calmer, more at ease and more able to have the great relationships that you so desperately want!

Holly is an award-winning and best-selling author on the rise and on a mission to bring more wellness, joy, and intentionality to parenting and beyond. In addition to being an author, she is also a BSN, RN, wellness blogger, a wellness & culture commentator, the mother of four incredible sons, and a perpetual student of life. Writing her first book Stop, Drop, Grow, & Glow was a deep calling and a tremendous way she could be of service to parents everywhere.
