Motherhood Pivots with Stephania Weisz: Balancing Career, Family, and Wellness

Send us Fan MailCan you make a dramatic career change while raising young children? What if you're missing those once-in-a-lifetime moments with your kids because of work? And why is it so hard for mothers to ask for help?Stephania Weisz, host of the "Mom Powered Life" podcast, tackles these questions and more as she shares her compelling journey from registered nurse to real estate agent and health coach. The pivotal moment? Missing her daughter's first steps while working a night shift - a heartbreaking experience that sparked a complete reevaluation of her professional life."People told me I was absolutely insane," Stephania reveals about leaving her nursing career. "But I put it out of my head because it was what was best for me and my family." Her candid conversation with Shelly explores how motherhood forces us to redefine success, find flexibility, and sometimes make bold pivots against conventional wisdom.Beyond career transitions, Stephania opens up about her early commitment to sharing authentic motherhood experiences on social media when everyone else was posting perfectly curated content. "I started sharing my motherhood journey pretty early on about how it is not perfect," she explains. "I would get so many moms saying 'thank you for being honest.'" This authenticity eventually led to creating her podcast where mothers could find community and reassurance that they weren't alone in their struggles.The most powerful message comes at the conclusion when Stephania shares what she wishes she'd known earlier: "I wish I would have asked for help sooner. I wish I would have felt like I didn't have to do it all." Her vulnerability reminds us that strength isn't found in doing everything yourself, but in knowing when to reach out for support.Whether you're a new parent, considering a career change, or simply need reassurance that you're not the only one finding motherhood challenging, this conversation offers both practical wisdom and emotional validation. Listen now and remember - it's okay to ask for help.CONNECT WITH STEPHANIA: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephaniaweisz_realtorFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Stephania WeiszCONNECT WITH SHELLY: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wellnesswithshellyj https://www.instagram.com/momswhoflourishFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ShellyJefferis Join Shelly's email list, receive free newsletter! https://wellnesswithshelly.myflodesk.com/rpdbkqxa48A few of Shelly's favorite clean products:High quality, clean nutrition and beauty products: https://shellyjefferis.isagenixClean-crafted wine, free from chemicals & pesticides:https://scoutandcellar.com/?u=healthyhappyhoursJuJu Non-toxic candles & air fresheners:https://goodjujucandles.com/?ref=mrtgnyghCoupon code for 10% off: ShellyJefferisThank you for listening to the Words of Wellness podcast with Shelly Jefferis.
