Ep 055 - Communicating Openly About Career Goals and Vision

In this episode of Redefining Motherhood, I discuss navigating ambition and work-life balance as a mother. A fellow community member reached out to me about the arguments her career ambitions spark with her husband, despite her desire to provide for her family. I believe open communication is key to addressing any pressure felt from partners regarding one's career goals. Effective communication is so important for having conversations that may be difficult.

It's also essential to share your long-term career vision and goals with your partner to gain their understanding and support. While having empathetic conversations where both parties feel heard, validating each other's feelings helps build connection and an understanding of each other's perspectives. Setting clear boundaries and expectations of mutual respect in the relationship supports maintaining a balanced work and home life.

My hope is that by sharing this message with you today, it can help alleviate any feelings of isolation you may have regarding your personal growth. As always, feel free to reach out with any thoughts on this topic, and remember, TOGETHER we're Redefine Motherhood.
