Navigating Leadership While Parenting from Home

“As a mother working from home and leading a team, I often felt torn — trying to show up with authority at work while carrying the emotional weight of parenting in silence.

One painful experience early in my career — where I was dismissed after expressing my opinion — left a lasting mark. Since then, I’ve stayed quiet in rooms where I should’ve spoken.

Through coaching with Phronesis Leadership, I found more than confidence — I found a safe space to reflect, process, and rebuild the connection to my voice. I learned how to speak from a place of clarity, not fear.

Today, I no longer choose between being a mother or a leader. I lead with empathy, conviction, and presence — shaped by both my lived experiences and the courage to own them.”
