In this episode Dr Natasha Wallace is joined by Ralu Atomei for an honest conversation about why so many working mums feel like they're failing, both at work and at home.

Together, they explore how imposter syndrome, societal expectations, and deeply ingrained beliefs about job security and success shape women's experiences in employment, entrepreneurship, and motherhood. Ralu shares insights from her work supporting women in business, while Natasha brings a psychological lens to how an "employee mindset" can intensify fear, self-doubt, and pressure, particularly when women are juggling parenting responsibilities.

They also discuss the low representation of women in leadership and business, and how systemic barriers often get internalised as personal failure. This conversation invites working mums to question who current definitions of success are designed for, and what it might look like to redefine success in a way that supports both mental health and family life.
