This isn\u2019t a conversation about \u201chaving it all\u201d. It\u2019s about what happens when: \ud83d\udc40 your career and motherhood collide \ud83d\udc40 your capacity changes, but your ambition doesn\u2019t \ud83d\udc40 you\u2019re trying to figure out what\u2019s next, without losing yourself in the process Mary describes that moment in 3 words: exhausted, FOMO, and overwhelmed. And I can honestly say as a mother myself\u2026 I felt every one of them at some point too. Together, we explored: \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffc the identity shift that reshapes your relationship with work \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffc her \u201cMVP\u201d approach to starting with small habits and building sustainably \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffc the reality of returning from mat leave, from logistics to emotional loa \ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffc how a coach supported Mary to start before she felt ready As a coach and as someone navigating my own evolving season of motherhood, I also share how being part of one of Mary\u2019s early pilot Propel cohorts positively impacted me.  One moment that stayed with me: \u201cI remember thinking\u2026 is this how every day is going to be?\u201d That honest reflection captures so much of what this episode is about.
