  • RERUN: The Good Enough Mother [Rebecca Michael, VP of Marketing at Google]
    2026/07/08

    There's a version of motherhood you've seen everywhere. The mom who has the enriching activities planned, the nutritious dinner on the table, the patient voice at the end of a long day. The one who never drops a ball.

    You're not her. Neither am I. Neither is Rebecca Michael, and she's one of just 300 people at the VP level of Google overseeing the Marketing for Google Search and Google Maps.

    What Rebecca is, is a Good Enough Mother. And it turns out, that's exactly what our kids actually need.

    My guest and close friend this week is one of the most thoughtful women I’ve talked to about the quiet pressure working moms carry to be perfect in every role, all the time. This conversation gave me permission to exhale, and I think it will do the same for you.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why "good enough" isn't a compromise, it's the scientifically backed parenting approach that actually raises more resilient kids
    • How Rebecca navigated IVF while leading a major team at Google, what she disclosed, what she protected, and why
    • The identity work she did before becoming a mom that every woman considering motherhood needs to hear
    • How two full-time executive parents divide household labor so clearly that neither one is silently keeping score
    • Why Rebecca's morning routine looks nothing like what productivity culture tells you it should and why it works
    • The "Rebecca Week" reset she takes every year: what it is, how she structures it, and why she tells her whole team about it
    • The insight her psychotherapist father gave her during pregnancy that became her parenting north star
    • How working from home vs. in-office changes the default parent dynamic in ways most couples never talk about openly

    If you've spent any energy trying to be everything to everyone, this episode is your permission slip to let that go.
