In this episode Emma chats with Cassie Daniel lifestyle Coach who helps busy mums live their best life and find the balance when returning to work. 

Emma and Cassie chat about: 

•  The main problems when returning to work 
•  How imposter Syndrome and confidence can get in the way 
•  Overwhelm takes over and how to manage 
•  Why women feel they have no purpose

Four and a half years ago Cassie became a mum…and when she returned to work she realised that as a working mum, her mindset about herself, her ability and expectations were so different than before. 

She questioned her ability, doubted her skills and knowledge, and held unrealistic and hurtful expectations of herself at home (and at work in some ways too).  She was burning out and it was affecting her work, her relationships and her parenting.

She had a job that she loved,  help from family and an awesome husband who supported her, but she couldn’t stop thinking that she wasn’t good enough; as a mum, at work, and at keeping home. 

She realised she wasn’t alone, as most of the mums she spoke to at work and in her personal life were experiencing the same feelings and were racked constantly with guilt that they weren’t good enough or doing enough.

Cassie wanted to help other mums out their return to work and find the balance and happiness as a working mum.

Stats from the Breast Cancer Network Australia:

Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting Australian women.

Australia has one of the best breast cancer survival rates in the world. The incidence rate of women and men being diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia is increasing; however the mortality rate from breast cancer is decreasing.

In 2022, it is predicted that 20,428 women and 212 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer. This means that approximately 20,640 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year - on average, 57 people every day.

A snapshot of breast cancer in Australia in 2022:

• The risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer over a lifetime is 1 in 7 for women and 1 in 555 for men.
• It is estimated that breast cancer will account for approximately 28 per cent of all new cancers in Australian women.
• The chance of surviving at least five years (five year relative survival) has increased from 77.3 per cent in 1989-1993 to 91.8 per cent in 2014-2018.
• It is estimated that at the end of 2017, there were 242,083 women who were alive and had been diagnosed with breast cancer between 1982 and 2017.
• Approximately 80 per cent of new cases of breast cancer are in women aged 50 or above.
• It is estimated that 3178 women and 36 men will die from breast cancer.

In this episode Emma chats to parenting expert and owner of Hurstfield Consulting.
Laura runs an online business supporting parents through various parenting programs. 

Laura  has over 20 years experience as a Social Worker, Parenting Practitioner and Compliance Officer for Children’s services and NDIS organisations.

Emma invited Laura onto the podcast to talk about tips on parenting to help other mums out there. 

Laura talks bout why there is no such thing as a perfect parent. If you can be calm and consistent, provide affection and descriptive praise 30% of the day then that is a win. 

Laura prefers not to work with parents who state they want to be perfect parents, it's impossible. 
Laura prefers to see parents get small wins along the way to bigger changes in the family home, build mums up to be confident, relaxed and enjoy parenting a bit more and maybe that enables them to have more time for themselves, which means a great role model for our little people.
