The Comeback Career Podcast with Fexingo: Returning After a Gap, Stay-at-Home Re-Entry

After a career break — whether for parenting, caregiving, health, travel, or burnout recovery — re-entering the workforce can feel like navigating a foreign country whose language you once spoke fluently. In this series, Lucas and Luna dissect the practical and psychological mechanics of that return. Each episode centers on one concrete obstacle: how to reframe resume gaps so hiring managers see depth, not absence; which certifications or freelance projects actually accelerate re-entry; how to negotiate salary when you've been out three years and your old peers are two promotions ahead. They examine real cases — a former marketing director who spent four years as a stay-at-home parent and now runs a boutique consultancy, a software engineer who took two years to travel and ended up pivoting into product management. Lucas brings the data: Bureau of Labor Statistics re-entry rates, employer survey data on bias against gaps, and the surprisingly strong retention numbers for returners. Lun
