Motherhood and careers - we know how hard it can be to balance both and Lauren Petrowski is here to break down this journey for us. Lauren Petrowski is a former host of Good Day Austin and has 15 years of experience as a news anchor. She is now a digital content creator and covers topics from food, home, and fashion. 

In this episode, Lauren gets vulnerable about motherhood, work-life, and asking herself if she really can have it all. She shares about the loneliness of having a baby during a pandemic, and then after 12 years of working as a morning news anchor, she made the hard decision to step away from her role and stay home. We make challenging decisions in life that we know are ultimately for the best, but it’s also okay to grieve the life we had because it mattered to us. This is a conversation that women need to hear more.
