44. Going back to work after baby? You're more qualified than ever! Here's why.

Going back to work after kids can feel terrifying. Will your brain still work? Can you juggle the home stuff as well as job deadlines?

In this episode, I’m here to remind you that not only can you do it - you’re already highly qualified.

Motherhood is like running a business. You’ve been project managing, negotiating, crisis handling, and leading every single day. These are not “soft skills.” They’re powerful, transferable, and exactly what employers are looking for.

Here’s what I cover in this episode:

- The key skills you’ve developed as a mum (and how they match workplace needs)

- How to frame your experience for CVs, interviews, and appraisals
- My best tips for balancing the juggle of work and home life without losing yourself in the process

If you’re nervous about returning to work or need a confidence boost to see your value clearly, this episode is for you.
