This belief, rooted in old-school sleep training myths, leaves countless moms and dads feeling frustrated and helpless, even guilty, as they wonder why they can’t solve their child’s sleep struggles.

But what if there was a gentler, holistic way to support your little one’s sleep development—one that aligns with your values and empowers your whole family to rest well?

Is Returning to Work After Motherhood Rocking Your Confidence?

You’ve spent months bonding with your baby, and now the time has come to return to work. But instead of feeling ready, you’re overwhelmed, uncertain, and maybe even questioning if this is the path you still want. Sound familiar?

So many moms go through a profound shift when they step into motherhood. The career they once loved may no longer align with the life they want. But the fear of change—of walking away from stability and stepping into the unknown—can feel paralyzing.

Here’s the truth: If you’ve been feeling that nudge that something needs to change, it’s worth paying attention to. Your confidence doesn’t come from choosing a side—corporate mom, stay-at-home mom, entrepreneur—it comes from making decisions that align with YOU.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL FIND OUT:

• Why the transition back to work after maternity leave can feel so jarring (and what no one tells you about it).
• The real reason so many moms start questioning their career path after having a baby.
• How to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of making a big career shift.
• What to do if you feel called to a new path but don’t know where to start.

If you've ever felt torn between the job you once loved and the life you now crave, know that you're not alone. Your journey is unique, and the choices you make should reflect the life YOU want to create. Tune in to hear how I made the transition from corporate life to running my own business—and how you can find clarity in your next step, too.
