• 64 | Hustle Isn’t Leadership: Lead Through Your Strengths (and Ditch Burnout for Good)
    2025/10/24

    Have you been told the only way to grow is to hustle harder—wake earlier, stay later, say yes to more?

    Here’s the truth: hustle doesn’t create growth—it creates burnout. In this coaching-style episode of Career Growth for Working Moms, Shannon shows you how to lead through your strengths so you can grow with clarity and confidence without doing more.

    💡 Inside this episode:

    • The Hustle Trap Cycle (overcommit → overwork → burnout → guilt → repeat) and how to exit it fast.
    • Why strength-based leadership beats hustle (and what that looks like in real meetings & real mom-life).
    • The 4 dominant wiring styles for working moms—and how to lead in yours:
      • Boss Lady in Action (movement fuels you)
      • Charismatic Queen (expression fuels you)
      • Heart-Centered Guide (connection fuels you)
      • Visionary Brainiac (strategy fuels you)
    • A simple 3-step framework: Notice → Name → Nurture to align your work with your natural strengths this week.
    • Real client stories (Melissa, Dana, Maria, Keisha) that prove: when you stop hustling against your wiring and start leading with it, career growth accelerates and burnout drops.

    🧭 Try the Strengths Experiment (this week):

    1. Notice when you feel drained vs. alive
    2. Name your dominant style (boss lady / charismatic queen / heart-centered guide / visionary brainiac)
    3. Nurture it with one aligned action (e.g., run a project, voice your vision, schedule connection, map the big picture)

    ✍️ Reflection prompts:

    • Where am I hustling against my wiring?
    • Which tasks drain me most—and which light me up?
    • What’s one strength-based action I’ll take in the next 48 hours?

    Bottom line: You don’t have to prove more to be worthy. Lead from who you are—that’s where sustainable growth, confidence, and peace live.

  • 63 | Scared You’ll Lose Everything in Divorce? The Fearless Money Moves Every Mom Needs featuring Leanne Ozaine
    2025/10/21

    Divorce can feel like your whole world — and your finances — are falling apart. But here’s the truth: two-thirds of divorce is about money, and most women aren’t getting the guidance they actually need to protect themselves.

    In this episode of Career Growth for Working Moms, I’m joined by Leanne Ozaine, certified divorce financial analyst and founder of fearlessdivorce.com

    Leanne shares her powerful framework to help women step into financial confidence, even in the middle of major life change.

    We talk about:
    ✅ The #1 money mistake women make during divorce (and how to avoid it)
    ✅ The real difference between attorneys and financial planners
    ✅ How to prepare financially before you even file (or if divorce gets dropped in your lap)
    ✅ The mindset shifts every woman needs to go from fear → empowerment
    ✅ How to set your kids up for healthy money beliefs starting now

    If you’ve ever worried “Am I going to be okay?” — this conversation will give you both hope and strategy.


    Key Takeaways:
    ➡️ Divorce is 2/3 money — don’t expect your attorney to do financial planning.
    ➡️ Preparation is power — gathering the right documents early makes all the difference.
    ➡️ Mindset matters — overcoming money fear starts with rewriting limiting beliefs.
    ➡️ You can do this — no matter how overwhelming it feels, there are fearless money moves every mom can make.

  • 60 | Breaking Free from Money Stress: Coaching for Every Leadership Style
    2025/10/10

    Are you stuck in a job you’ve outgrown because of the paycheck, the benefits, or the fear of what-ifs? You’re not alone. Financial stress is one of the biggest reasons working moms stay trapped in roles that drain them—but here’s the truth: money stress isn’t just about numbers, it’s about the story you’re telling yourself about money.

    In this episode of Career Growth for Working Moms, I’m bringing you into a roundtable coaching session with four women, each representing a different leadership style:
    ✨ The Boss Lady in Action
    ✨ The Charismatic Queen
    ✨ The Heart-Centered Guide
    ✨ The Visionary Brainiac

    You’ll hear their stories of financial fear, the hidden patterns keeping them stuck, and the exact mindset and money shifts they need to break free.

    By the end, you’ll walk away with:
    ✅ 3 journal prompts to rewrite your money story and release financial stress
    ✅ Scripts to help you ask for more, say no, or take messy action without guilt
    ✅ A new definition of financial freedom—one that starts with alignment, clarity, and courage, not just a bigger paycheck

    If you’ve been battling career burnout, feeling frozen by financial stress, or craving the confidence to step into your next chapter with clarity, this coaching session is your permission slip.

    Mama, your paycheck doesn’t define you. Your worth isn’t for sale. And your freedom? It’s closer than you think.
