When Motherhood Changes Everything: Finding Purpose Again
Send us a text
This week, I’m joined by Georgie Harris, co-founder of Mums Who Build — a community created to support mums navigating the often difficult return to work or business after having children.
After leaving a successful role at Burberry to care for her son with complex needs, Georgie found herself questioning identity, purpose, and financial security. She shares her journey of building back confidence — and how that experience led her to create a thriving support network for like-minded mums.
🗂️ What We Cover:
- Georgie’s decision to leave corporate life and how it reshaped her priorities
- The emotional and financial impact of caring for a child with additional needs
- How Mums Who Build started as a WhatsApp group and grew into a movement
- Redefining success and career identity post-motherhood
- Tools for rebuilding financial confidence and self-belief
- How to find — or create — a supportive community
- Managing burnout and the pressure to “bounce back”
💡 Key Takeaways:
- You’re allowed to start over. Career paths can shift dramatically — and that’s not failure.
- Financial resilience starts with confidence. Empowerment comes from knowledge and support.
- Community changes everything. Finding your people helps you rebuild faster and stronger.
- Don’t rush the return. Slowing down can be a power move — not a setback.
- Purpose evolves. What drives you may change after motherhood, and that’s where new magic can begin.
Whether you're returning to work after a break, building a business, or simply looking for community and clarity, this episode is packed with honesty, inspiration, and practical wisdom.
