Ever wonder what happens when a high-achieving tech exec trades deadlines and KPIs for diapers and cluster feeds? Meet Jaclyn Buckingham, founder of The New Mom School in Oklahoma—and our latest podcast guest. In this episode, Jaclyn opens up about leaving behind the fast-paced world of tech where she climbed the corporate ladder with confidence, only to discover that becoming a mom was the one challenge she couldn’t out-organize, out-strategize, or hustle her way through. She thought she could do anything she set her mind to… until motherhood reminded her that control is an illusion and surrender is a skill.
We’re talking about the identity crisis of ambitious women who suddenly find themselves in sweatpants, googling “how to soothe a colicky baby” at 3AM. This one’s for every mom who used to lead meetings and now leads bedtime battles. It’s raw. It’s honest. It’s everything they don’t tell you in birthing classes. 🎧 Listen now on the BeHerVillage podcast and anywhere you get your podcasts.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
