    May 1 2025

  • 460: Growing Up With a Wildly Successful Mom (+ Becoming One Yourself) With Kate Northrup

    460: Growing Up With a Wildly Successful Mom (+ Becoming One Yourself) With Kate Northrup
    Apr 24 2025
    What’s it really like growing up with a wildly successful mother, and then becoming one yourself? Today, Natalie is sitting down with bestselling author, entrepreneur, and speaker Kate Northrup for a raw, powerful conversation about legacy, ambition, identity, and motherhood. Kate shares what it was like being raised by Dr. Christiane Northrup — a pioneer in women’s health — and how growing up around success shaped her views on work, freedom, and motherhood. Whether you’re balancing motherhood and ambition, healing childhood patterns, or redefining success on your terms, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, supported, and inspired. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Natalie introduces Kate Northrup and sets the scene for a candid conversation about growing up with a successful mom, building a business, and redefining success on your own terms. 00:41 - Growing up with a famous mom: what Kate learned from watching Dr. Christiane Northrup’s career up close. 05:15 - Early lessons about freedom, ambition, and why Kate knew she wanted a different kind of life. 09:06 - How Kate approaches work travel with her daughters — and why their emotional security looks different from her own childhood. 10:53 - The pivotal repair work between Kate and her mom after a childhood of distance. 17:32 - Motherhood as an identity reckoning: Kate shares how birth trauma and postpartum survival shaped her life and business. 24:09 - How motherhood actually strengthens intuitive business leadership and why trusting your instincts is critical for long-term success. 28:37 - How Kate structures her business today to align with her body, seasons, and energy — creating more freedom without sacrificing growth. 35:15 - The surprising revenue impact of launching less often and how simplifying actually led to doubling results. 38:56 - How societal conditioning ties productivity to worth + how Kate broke free from the “busy equals valuable” mindset. 47:25 - Why not savoring every moment of early motherhood is okay + how redefining your own values can free you from guilt and comparison.
