The New Mom Boss Podcast

145. STEM Mom Work/Life Balance with Sarah Marie Bigler


Listen Later

Welcome back to the New Mom Boss Podcast! In this episode, I chat with Sarah Marie Bigler, a STEM mom (science - technology - engineering - math) who has taken on the challenge of navigating work/life balance in motherhood. As a mechanical engineer, mom of two, and certified birth/postpartum doula, Sarah has had to learn firsthand how to juggle the demands of her career and her family. She shares her inspiring journey of returning to work after maternity leave and the challenges she faced as a new mom, including dealing with the stress and anxiety of leaving her children at daycare.

 

We also dive into the importance of maintaining a sense of self in motherhood, and why it's crucial to prioritize self-care and pursue your passions, even with a busy family life. With two very different birth experiences under her belt, Sarah provides valuable insights and tips for new moms who may be feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what lies ahead. 

 Some big takeaways are:

  1. Postpartum life will be chaos without proper planning.
  2. Know your boundaries and be ready to advocate for them.
  3. It’s okay to pursue your other passions while being a mom.
