#106 - Marketing, Motherhood, and Baby Number Two: Integration, Ambition, and Letting Go of Perfect - Amy Lewin

Amy Lewin is in the thick of it—Marketing and Commercial Director at Girls in Marketing, mum to a toddler, and pregnant with baby number two.She gets it. The juggle. The ambition that doesn't fit into naptime. The choices you make when you refuse to wait for "someday."In this episode:How becoming a mother shifted her from defining herself in "boxes" (career achievements, professional identity) to full integration: work, motherhood, ambition—all overlapping, all real.Second time around: halfway through her pregnancy with baby number two, Amy reflects on what she's doing differently this time (spoiler: less pressure, more permission).The choices you make to focus and prioritise in this chapter of life: Amy works from home, and she won't consider an in-office job. That's a hard line. Here's why.Community building professionally vs. personally: she builds communities for a living, but making mum friends? That required courage she didn't expect.Redefining ambition: what it was before (career ladder, achievements) vs. what it is now (building something her son would be proud of).This is a conversation about integration over perfection. About building career and family—not choosing one over the other. About second chances and doing it differently.For mothers who refuse to wait for "someday" and are intentionally building their version of life today.
