1231: The Power Pause: When Professional Women Pause Their Career with Neha Ruch

What if success didn't have to look like climbing the ladder or doing it all at once?

In this episode, Heather is joined by the founder of The Power Pause and author of The Power Pause, Neha Ruch. Together, they unpack the societal narratives that make ambitious women fear slowing down and why pressing pause doesn't mean giving up. This is a conversation about reclaiming your agency, reframing ambition, and choosing a life aligned with what really matters.

What we cover:

🩶The profound identity shifts that occur when women slow down and redefine success on their own terms.

🩶The emotional, cultural, and psychological work required to release external validation and create more spaciousness.

🩶The rediscovery of personal ambition, especially during seasons of motherhood and major life transitions.
