Self-awareness is powerful. But it’s only part of the story.

In this episode, we sit down with coach and entrepreneur Natasha Ganem, Founder and Owner of Lion Leadership, to explore what happens after the insight. Natasha shares her journey of doing the deep work of understanding herself—her needs, patterns, and motivations—and the realization that personal growth doesn’t create change unless the people around us are invited into the process.

Together, we discuss communication, relationships, boundaries, and the courage it takes to let others see what you’re learning about yourself in real time. This conversation is a reminder that growth isn’t just an individual experience. Sometimes the next step isn’t knowing yourself better; it’s bringing your people along for the journey.

Two things can be true: your family can need you, and you can have needs too.

In this episode, Olympic gold medalist, speaker, and mother Missy Franklin shares her journey of learning that caring for herself and caring for her family are not competing priorities. Through honest reflections on motherhood, identity, relationships, and well-being, Missy explores what it looks like to make space for her own needs without guilt or apology.

Together, we discuss self-care, sacrifice, partnership, and the both-and reality of motherhood. This conversation offers a refreshing reminder that honoring yourself isn’t selfish and that when mothers thrive, the people around them benefit too.

Sometimes the hardest thing to say is no.

In this episode, Greer sits down with writer, speaker, and advocate Libby Ward to explore people-pleasing, capacity, and the challenge of honoring what you truly need. Libby shares her journey of becoming more honest with herself about her limits, her energy, and the expectations she no longer wants to carry.

Together, we discuss resentment, burnout, boundaries, and the freedom that comes from choosing alignment over external approval. This conversation is an invitation to take inventory of what’s on your plate, release what no longer belongs there, and create more space for the life you actually want to live.

What if the thing you’re trying hardest to solve isn’t actually a problem?

In this episode, maternal mental health expert, therapist, and coach Kate Kripke joins us to unpack why so many high-achieving women struggle in motherhood. It's not because they’re doing it wrong, but because they’re approaching it the same way they approach everything else. Through her work and personal experience, Kate shares how achievement, anxiety, and problem-solving can keep us disconnected from ourselves, our children, and the realities of motherhood.

Together, we explore postpartum anxiety, emotional well-being, nervous system regulation, and the difference between fixing and connecting. This conversation offers a compassionate reframe for working moms who feel exhausted by the pressure to get it right and invites us to consider a different possibility: maybe motherhood isn’t something to master. Maybe it’s something to experience.

You know those things you cry in the shower about? We explore those things in this podcast. The silent truths of working motherhood that often feel taboo, and we explore what it actually means to give these truths a voice to let you live in the “both/and” vs the “either/or” of motherhood and professional life. 

It’s about telling the truth, disrupting unrealistic expectations, and expanding what’s possible for working moms.

'Can We Say That Out Loud?' is for working moms—and anyone who loves, supports, or works alongside them—who wants a more honest conversation about motherhood, work, and identity. It’s for those ready to trade perfection for truth and isolation for connection.
