We Are More Than Moms

Before you roll your eyes at the idea of waking up before your kids—this isn’t that kind of episode.

This isn’t about being more productive or doing more. It’s about creating space for yourself before tending to everyone else’s needs. Because without that time, it’s easy to spend your days in reactivity—jumping from one need to the next—instead of moving through your day with intention.

In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to carve out even a small moment for yourself, why it’s been life-changing for us, and how to approach it in a way that actually feels supportive—not stressful. Because it’s not about waking up earlier, it’s about carving time for yourself.

If you’re on maternity leave and dreading going back to work—this is for you. Or if you’re feeling stuck in your career post kids.

We talk a lot about the physical changes after having a baby, but rarely the internal shift—who you are now, what you want, and what no longer fits.
In this episode, we explore the in-between—outgrowing old identities, questioning your career, and navigating what’s next.

We also share our own experiences, along with stories from members of our Next Chapter group —our coaching space for moms navigating this in-between. Because maybe nothing is “wrong”, you’re just evolving into your next chapter. If you’re feeling stuck and craving clarity, send us a DM—we’d love to support you.

We’re sharing the story of our friendship, which naturally led us into a bigger conversation about friendship in our “mom era.” We talk about what happens to friendships as life shifts: the drifting, the realigning, and the honest conversations we sometimes have to have with ourselves about who still fits in our lives. We dive into navigating friendships that no longer feel aligned, letting go of relationships that feel toxic or draining, and releasing the guilt that can come with outgrowing someone.

If you’ve ever felt the shift in your friendships during motherhood, this episode will make you feel seen — and remind you that it’s okay for friendships to evolve, shift, and even end, creating space for relationships that truly align with who you are today. ✨

Michelle Battersby has built an incredible career—from helping launch Bumble in Australia to founding her own company and, at 30 weeks pregnant with her second child, selling that company and landing her dream job, president at Peanut. So the question is: can you really have both a big career and a family?

Like many ambitious women, Michelle once feared that becoming a mother might derail everything she’d worked for. Instead, it did the opposite.
In this episode, Michelle shares what it’s really like to navigate motherhood and ambition—from raising two kids 17 months apart away from her family in Australia, to why IDGAF is in the dictionary but matrescence isn’t, why so many women are still afraid to talk about pregnancy at work or while raising money, and how she’s learned to take bold risks and embrace discomfort—even in her motherhood era.

This episode is for every ambitious woman who’s ever wondered: Do I really have to choose?

In this episode, Dale shares a conversation she had with her mom that stopped her in her tracks. It sparked a bigger realization: so many moms feel like they’re drowning — not because they’re incapable, but because the systems they built to survive a season of motherhood are no longer working for the life they’re living now.

We create structures to get through the chaos of early motherhood, but rarely stop to ask: Is this system actually supporting me, or is it running me?

This episode is an invitation to step out of autopilot, reassess what’s no longer working, and redesign your systems so motherhood feels more supported — and less like you’re constantly trying to stay afloat.
