    May 14 2026
    In this episode, Leanna Laskey McGrath sits down with Lauren Cannata, a leader in the influencer marketing industry and mother of two, for a conversation about motherhood, career growth, work-life balance, and the intentional decisions that help high-achieving women create more sustainable and fulfilling lives. Lauren shares how becoming a mother reshaped the way she approaches ambition, productivity, leadership, and success. Instead of feeling more chaotic, motherhood pushed her to become more intentional with her time, boundaries, and career decisions, ultimately creating more balance, clarity, and presence in both work and family life. Together, Leanna and Lauren explore the pressure many working moms and executive women feel to “do it all,” why boundaries are essential for preventing burnout, and how values-aligned career decisions can help women build lives that support both professional success and personal fulfillment. They also discuss the leadership skills motherhood strengthens, including empathy, patience, perspective, and prioritization, and why redefining success after motherhood can lead to a more grounded and meaningful life. This episode is for ambitious women, working moms, leaders, and professionals who want to create more balance in motherhood without losing themselves, their goals, or their careers. In this episode, listeners will learn: How motherhood changes ambition and career priorities Why boundaries are essential for work-life balance How intentional career decisions can create more balance in motherhood The leadership skills women develop through motherhood How high-achieving women can redefine success after becoming mothers Practical mindset shifts for reducing overwhelm and burnout There are still a few spots left if you’d like to sign up to Try Coaching in observance of ICF’s International Coaching Week!
