    Lost in motherhood? How to reclaim your purpose and presence

    In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m diving into a topic so many ambitious women wrestle with but rarely talk about—the motherhood identity crisis. Becoming a mom can flip your world upside down, leaving you questioning who you are, what you want, and if the career you’ve worked so hard for still aligns with the life you want to lead. I’m sharing my own experience of feeling lost after having kids, stories from my clients, and the transformative results they’ve achieved by navigating this identity shift with intention. If you’ve ever felt torn between your goals and your family, or like you’re failing at everything despite giving it your all, this episode is for you. Let’s explore how to regain your sense of purpose, calm your mind, and reclaim your power to make life feel intentional again. You don’t want to miss this one! Topics in this episode: The motherhood identity crisis and its impact. Personal stories of transformation. Finding purpose in your career. Quieting the mental chaos. Building a balanced, intentional life.   Show Notes & References:Book a FREE breakthrough call here: https://www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/book Interested in 1-1 coaching with me?
