In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m diving into one of the trickiest yet most important questions every ambitious working mom faces: “What do I really want?” If you’ve ever felt stuck, disconnected, or like your choices have been more about walking through doors that opened rather than creating your own path, this episode will help you shift. I share why this question feels so overwhelming, what keeps us from knowing our own desires, and the powerful process I use with clients to uncover clarity, direction, and regret-free decisions. This is a deep, real, and practical conversation you won’t want to miss.  

Topics in this episode:

• Why it’s so hard for women (especially moms) to answer “What do I want?” 
• The cultural, motherhood, and people-pleasing influences that keep us disconnected from desire 
• The difference between want (head-driven) and desire (soul/body-driven) 
• How to define your personal sense of “rightness” and build your internal compass 
• Real client stories (and my own) of making bold, regret-free career and life decisions
