We’re back with another roundtable, and this week Ashley and I get to chat with two powerhouse guests. Alison Campbell is a former HR tech exec, and now is the founder of unBurnt, a company redefining how we prevent burnout. Dr. Sheryl Ziegler is a clinical psychologist and author of the books Mommy Burnout and The Crucial Years. These two women are on a mission to rewire how we think about stress, success, self-worth, and how we raise the next generation.

Our conversation dives deep into what burnout really feels like, why many of us miss the signs of it, the systems that perpetuate it, how to heal your nervous system, and what it takes to raise burnout-resistant kids. This is a must-listen for anyone tired of just pushing through.

Today’s episode is the second installment of our new roundtable discussions on motherhood, a collaboration with Ashley Blackington, the host of the And/Both Podcast. In this episode, we’re joined by two multi-passionate working moms—Alli Kushner and Kate Tovsen.

Alli is the founder of BeeKyn, a soon-to-launch playdate matching and scheduling platform designed to make it easier for parents to foster meaningful, real-life connections. Her work focuses on building supportive spaces to help families navigate the everyday tension between career, caregiving, and community.

Kate is a mom of two, a digital creator and founder of Kate Tovsen Media, and the force behind The Society of Working Moms, an online supportive community for and by working moms of all ages and stages. She is passionate about connecting moms to create a network of support, ideas, and friendships.

Today’s conversation may just help you see a glimpse of yourself, and remind you that you’re not behind, you’re not alone, and facing your fears is often the first step in reclaiming the life you may feel you’ve lost.

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, I sat down with Future Cain, a powerhouse leader of social-emotional intelligence, leadership, wellness, and belonging. We discuss how mental health isn’t a one-and-done task, but rather a daily practice of caring for yourself so that you can give to others from the overflow. Future explains how we can fully appreciate what we have when we choose to love and care for ourselves—and only then can we truly lead others well.

Today’s episode is something new and exciting at PG-ish! I’ve teamed up with Ashley Blackington, the host of the And/Both Podcast, to bring together some incredible women we both admire—women who are making waves and doing beautiful work in the world. In this inaugural roundtable discussion, we chat with Jess from ELIXR Coaching and Leslie from Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs about the very real struggles of women navigating the balance of motherhood and work. While there is much work to be done to change our modern corporate system, we believe that the first step is to start conversations that can spark a ripple effect of change moving forward.

Sometimes life throws things at us that feel impossible, as if we’re stuck and the challenge is too big to overcome. But the truth is that how we choose to approach situations, and especially the words we say to ourselves, truly matters.

In today’s clip, Marie Forleo reminds us that everything is figureoutable. In other words, when we believe that we can face any challenge handed to us, our view of the world and its obstacles changes dramatically.

Are you feeling like you’re ready for change? Giving ourselves permission to try something new is more about getting to know ourselves—our passions, our dreams, our strengths—rather than taking a path we’ve been taught we should take. As parents, it’s easier to teach what we know than to actually live it, but that’s where self-awareness and self-discipline come in. 

Today’s clip with John Maxwell teaches us that the decisions we make need to align with our greater values and purpose in order to bring fulfillment, both personally and professionally. Whether you’re raising kiddos, leading a team, or simply wanting to be a better human, this episode will challenge you to reflect and take action.
