Anna Cosic: The Hidden Downside of High Expectations as Ambitious Mothers

I talk a lot about capacity, and why we feel so overloaded.But as my friend Anna Cosic points out in this episode, one of our greatest obstacles isn’t necessarily carrying the load itself – it’s managing OURSELVES.Oftentimes, it’s not a capacity issue – it’s an accountability issue.I believe we CAN be wildly successful in our careers AND be devoted mothers. It’s why this podcast exists – to create a community to help women figure out the push and pull of work and motherhood. Anna is someone I’ve known for several years from mastermind programs. She's a former media and tech executive turned career and leadership coach, and a mom to an almost-six-year-old.I’ve been waiting for this conversation for a long time. Anna and I message each other  almost everyday due to the fact that we have kids the same age, and that we’re going through a lot of the same things in regards to the motherload.Today, Anna and I talk about the issue that started her business, the shock of becoming a stay-at-home mom after a corporate career, and some of the most common mental blocks among women she coaches.Resources & LinksYou can find Anna on Instagram and LinkedIn and her website.Did this episode resonate with you?
