Becoming Again: Leadership, Motherhood, and the Question of “Am I Enough?” with Amelia Holland, Part 2

Candace Langston and co-host Amy Cunningham continue their conversation about returning to work after stepping away, focusing on identity shifts, vulnerability, and the question “am I enough?” Citywire's Amelia Holland  shares how the traumatic birth of her twins changed her leadership, replacing self-protective armor with openness, empathy, and intentionality. Instead of reentering “guns blazing,” she observed where she was most needed, protected energy for her boys, and reframed enoughness as capacity. In this second part The Return: Redefining “Enough” After Motherhood, Trauma, and Career Comebacks she discusses the ongoing tension working mothers face between career and caregiving, referencing a London School of Economics study across 80 countries describing identity alignment as a continuous process. The episode explores burnout, evolving leadership through life transitions, the power of connection and community, and choosing a lens of strength over scrutiny.Find Candace LangstonFind Amy CunninghamFind Amelia HollandFind CitywireQuestions or comments, we'd love to hear from you...send us a text!To stay up to date with The FEW Collective Email us.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a rating and review on Apple or Spotify or where ever you get your podcasts.
