  • Work Series: The Truth About Stepping Back from your career — And Coming Back even Stronger, with Neha Ruch
    2025/05/29
    Welcome back to our special series on work and motherhood. Here's something we don't talk about enough: the vast majority of ambitious, educated women will pause or shift their careers for a season while raising children, and not because they're giving up, but because they're playing the long game. In fact, 1 in 3 women will fully pause; 1 in 2 will downshift; and 90% will eventually return to the workforce. So these old labels of working and stay at home mum just don't fit anymore. The reality is far more fluid than that. And there's a new wave of mothers who are choosing intentional pauses, not permanent exits. Today's guest is an absolute expert in this area. Neha Ruch the founder of Mother Untitled, a platform that's helping to rewrite the narrative around ambition and motherhood. In this conversation, we explore how pausing your career can actually be a power move, a time to deepen, grow, and figure out what's next for you. A time to develop new skills and become even more aligned. So if you've ever questioned your choices, your ambition, or your timeline, then this is the episode for you.

  • Work Series: You’re Not Imagining It — The System Is Rigged Against Working Mothers, with Jane van Zyl
    2025/05/22
    Welcome to our special 8 part work series. A mini series that takes a deep dive into paid work and motherhood, inspired by feedback from our community who have overwhelmingly said that this is something that’s difficult to get right. We hope that this series supports you, offers you guidance and gives you confidence. For first guest interview, we’re going straight where we need to: to the big picture, to reveal the systems and structures that we’re operating in. Why? Because that helps us make sense of our individual experiences. Our guest is Jane Van Zyl, CEO of Working Families, the UK’s national charity for working parents and carers. Jane brings a rare and powerful perspective. She is at the heart of the conversations between government, employers and thousands of parents. There’s probably no one better placed to understand the challenges, opportunities and systems at play. We talk about the ‘Motherhood Pentalty’, the truth about flexible work, why shared parental leave isn’t working, and what real systemic change looks like. Jane also shares practical advice for anyone who feels unseen or unsupported in the workplace and gives us a vital reminder that we all need to hear: that you are enough.
