About this listen

Are you a working mom who is stressed out by trying to find time to fit it all in? Do you wish that you could be more present with your children? Desperate for time to think about what you need but don’t ever get there? Financial pressure keeping you stuck in this cycle? I am thrilled that you are here! This is the podcast for working moms who are juggling it all. Build your resilience so that you can overcome the overwhelm and be more productive at work and present at home. Learn stress management strategies that will boost your productivity and decrease your stress so that you can balance a job you love and a family you love even more. Hey, I’m Charlotte - wellbeing coach, mum and wife who works because I love my job. I was living the chaotic, distracted life of working a full day, while also managing the emotional and mental load of being a mum - trying to make sure that everyone’s needs were met, while forgetting about my own. I was tired of feeling the ’mom guilt’ of having a job I love knowing that it took emotional energy away from my family. I finally realised that if I was going to enjoy my work and my journey of motherhood, I needed to set boundaries and make choices that would make me feel more in control, healthier and happier so that I could be the coach and the mum I wanted to be. I created a resilience plan that fits ME. A way of being that allows me to ride the waves of life with calm, peace and confidence so that I can focus better, be present and enjoy the moment while also finding some me time in amongst the noise. And I am ready to share it with you! If you’re ready to feel less stressed, be more organised and productive at work so you can be more present and patient at home and in the relationships that are most dear to you, then this podcast is for you! So, put away your laptop, close the bathroom door and let’s dig in!Copyright 2023 All rights reserved.

  • 107 | Longing for a Break? Here's Your Permission to Take One!
    Aug 12 2025

    After two years and over 100 episodes, I am pressing pause on The Resilient Working Mum podcast not from a place of burnout or boredom but from a place of calm and certainty and clarity!

    In this honest episode, I share why resilience is about having the capacity — mentally, physically, and emotionally — to walk the tightrope of life with strength and intention.

    I opens up about my own journey through the Good Girl and Achiever identities, and how reclaiming my true identity has helped me let go of pressure, perfectionism, and performance-based worth. I also share what’s coming next: new tools, continued support, and exciting ways for you to keep building your resilience even while the podcast takes a break.

    In this episode, you’ll Learn:

    • Why real resilience is not about bouncing back — it’s about preparing for and adapting to challenge
    • How internal balance helps you cope with stress and pressure
    • What it looks like to step away from false identities and choose what truly matters
    • Why I am pausing the podcast — and how I am still showing up for you in new, powerful ways

  • 106 | Internal Confidence: Finding Value in Who You Are Not What You Do with Melanie Birky
    Aug 5 2025

    As a high-performing working mom, it’s easy to tie your worth to how much you do — how productive you are, how much you achieve, how many boxes you tick. But what if your true value has nothing to do with your output?

    In this high-energy, fun guest episode, we’re diving deep into the topic of internal confidence — the kind that doesn’t rely on praise, performance, or perfection. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your sense of self-worth, so you can stop chasing validation and start leading from a place of calm, clarity, and grounded confidence.

    Whether you’re navigating life in a demanding corporate role, returning from maternity leave, or just trying to keep up with the pace of modern motherhood — this episode will help you redefine success from the inside out.

    This is a must-listen for any working mom who’s tired of doing more and still feeling like it’s not enough. You are not your to-do list. You are not your job title. You are enough — and this episode will remind you why.

  • 105 | Why Multitasking Is Wrecking Your Productivity And What to Do Instead
    Jul 29 2025

    Feeling pulled in a million directions? In this final 'reminder' episode, we’re revisiting a powerful conversation from the archives on multitasking vs. single tasking — and why switching between tasks could be one of the biggest drains on your productivity, wellbeing, and even your confidence.

    If you're a high-achieving working mom juggling back-to-back meetings, emails, parenting, and the endless mental load, this episode will help you understand why multitasking isn't a badge of honour — it's a fast track to burnout.

    You'll learn:

    • Why your brain isn't wired to multitask (and what it costs you when you try)
    • How single-tasking can help you feel calmer, clearer, and more focused
    • The surprising link between focus and emotional resilience
    • Simple, doable shifts to start reclaiming your time, energy, and attention

    Whether you're navigating corporate life, leading a team, or just trying to get through the workday without losing your mind — this episode is your permission slip to do less, better.

    If you love this episode, share it with another working mum who’s ready to break free from the chaos.
