12. Lauren Treweek: The Reality of Building a Career While Raising a Family

Joining us this episode is Lauren Treweek, co-host of the incredibly successful Ready or Not podcast, a podcast for mums who make work, work.Loz and I actually connected on Instagram after she shared a story about one of her kids that I could relate to 100%.We ended up chatting, having a laugh about it, and one conversation turned into another. And that's how she ended up here on the podcast. And I'm so grateful she said yes, because I just knew she'd be someone this community would connect with. What I admire most about Loz is that she isn't afraid to have the conversations that matter. She uses her voice and her platform to help women feel seen, understood, and a little less alone. And I think we all need more of that.In this episode she shares:Why every child teaches you that there is no perfect parenting formula.How accepting she's an "A-type" personality helped her stop trying to be the mum she's not.Why ambition in mothers is still judged differently to ambition in fathers.What surprised her most about building the Ready or Not podcast.The reality of putting yourself online and dealing with criticism as a content creator.The conversation that completely changed how she supports friends through grief.Why community matters so much for working mums who often feel isolated.How parenting has given her a new appreciation for families raising children with additional needs.Key Quotes"There is no secret sauce." "If it fails, it fails. You've given it a crack.""Life has a way of putting little breadcrumbs in there for you."More aboutLoz instagram @laurentreweek_Ready or not podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/ready-or-not/id1659238371Ready or not instagram - @readyornot.podReady or not substack - https://readyornot.substack.com/aboutYou can get involved with the podcast online Website https://herethereeverywhere.com.au/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/here_there_everywhere_aus/FB group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1CWFAe3LkU/?mibextid=wwXIfr Hosted on Acast.
