The Courage to Relaunch: How Women Can Reinvent Themselves After Life’s Pauses

Loading player...
"What happens when life hits 'pause'—and how do you hit 'play' again with confidence?"

This #WinningWomenWednesday, join Katie Mohamed—adventurer, strategist, and change-maker—and Sam as they dive into the powerful journey of relaunching yourself after a career break, motherhood, entrepreneurship, or personal reinvention.

💡 Key Takeaways:
✅ The "Pause Privilege" – Why taking a sabbatical, maternity leave, or career break isn’t a setback—it’s a strategic reset.
✅ From Detour to Comeback – How to reframe your break as growth, not a gap (raising kids? You’ve been CEO of a tiny human!).
✅ Re-entering a Changed World – Tech evolves, workplaces shift—how to catch up without burning out.
✅ "Am I Still Enough?" – Overcoming self-doubt and judgment when returning to corporate or pivoting careers.
✅ When Entrepreneurship Isn’t for You – Why there’s no shame in trading the hustle for stability (and how to do it gracefully).

🔥 "A relaunch isn’t about going backward—it’s about leaping forward with new wisdom."

🎧 Listen now for raw, real talk on reinvention, resilience, and rewriting your story—because every comeback deserves a standing ovation. 👏
