S3 Ep6: Motherhood Unfiltered: The 4 Pillars to Balance and Thrive with Professional Coaches Emma Gill & Ekaterina Ward

What does owning your power actually mean and how do you sustain it on daily basis? How do you authentically sell your skills, strengths, experience, and services at work or as a business owner? In this podcast we hand over the mic to professional Career Coaches, Emma Gill and Ekaterina Ward. They advocate for reframing the fear of truly owning and claiming your power, strengths and desires. And discuss 3 main things to help you do the same. Authenticity – accessing the truth of who you are. Seizing the moment – don’t wait. January won’t bring new opportunities. You will. BIG vision and purposeful decision making Ekaterina brings a wealth of experience helping women business owners to increase their energy, income and impact and feel good without sacrificing their own and family needs. Emma works with women making career changes to feel confident, authentic and purposeful when returning to the work or securing their promotion. Together they mix their different perspectives together to make a refreshing and stimulating coaching cocktail (no alcohol necessary!). They invite listeners to get excited and lean into their ambition and start taking decisive action. Now.

Why do so many of us go careering into motherhood, unaware of just how hard it is to have a meaningful career as well as family commitments? And why don’t men struggle with their careers in the same way? We talk about the rise of flexible jobs and work anywhere policies, executive burnout and the pressure to be “always on,” Government claims that 75% of mothers are in work, and yet there's being in work and there's having a career. If you’ve had a career break, been on maternity leave, want a career change, want to relaunch yourself back into work or just want a happier balance between work and everything else, Careering Into Motherhood is here with practical advice, insightful interviews and real human stories. Jane Johnson helps empower women and negotiate with employers to offer flexible working so they can stay in their careers. She negotiated her own senior role as a job-share, and in 2019 she set up the Careering Into Motherhood Facebook Group to promote discussion around flexible working, the group now has more than 8,000 members and a successful women’s mentoring programme.
