Introducing The Mothers with Sara Brown
from The Mothers with Sara Brown · host Backline Media
After leaving a 12-year career at Google, Sara Brown became fascinated by two questions:Who are mothers when nobody is asking about their children?And who are successful women when nobody is asking about their success?On her new podcast, Sara sits down with influential women shaping industries, institutions, communities, and culture (while raising kids!) to explore the person behind the titles, accomplishments, and expectations.In candid conversations, guests share the moments that shaped them, the tradeoffs they wrestle with, the identities they're still uncovering, and the lessons they've learned about work, ambition, purpose, power, relationships, caregiving, and building a meaningful life.Together, these conversations reveal something often missing from both career stories and parenting stories: the full humanity of women navigating both.Whether you're leading a company, raising children, questioning your next chapter, or simply trying to understand yourself more deeply, The Mothers invites you to get curious about who you are, what you want, and why you want it — and to build a life that honors those answers.Raw, smart, and deeply human, The Mothers blends the emotional honesty of We Can Do Hard Things, the business insight of How I Built This, and the intellectual depth of Brené Brown.*******⭐️ Follow The Mothers wherever you listen💬 Share the show with someone who would love it📱 Join The Mothers on Instagram @themotherspod✍️ Subscribe to Sara’s Substack for reflections on life, work, meaning & motherhood💼 Find Sara on LinkedInThe Mothers is a production of Backline Media.
