Welcome to the pilot episode of Your Working Mom Friends! In this first episode, Michelle and Leah invite you into a one-of-a-kind relationship formed over a decade of working together at two different companies. Both seasoned leaders, Leah and Michelle share a bond built on shared experiences, countless projects, and the ups and downs of balancing corporate jobs with family life.
Starting with personal routines and family life, Michelle and Leah reveal the one non-negotiable task that, if left undone, sends their entire day spiraling—a small but essential anchor in their busy lives. You’ll hear about Michelle’s lighthearted missteps in trying to crack LinkedIn’s algorithm (including her infamous Taylor Swift reference) and what she has learned so far on her journey to becoming a LinkedIn influencer.
The second half of the episode is an AMA segment where Leah asks Michelle questions about her approach to developing others and what's important for leadership roles and promotions.
While this episode may have a couple audio blips—no worries, they've brought on an audio guy —Michelle and Leah’s stories provide a real, relatable glimpse into their lives. Join Your Working Mom Friends as they embrace progress over perfection and share what it’s really like to juggle careers, family, and everything in between.
Tune in for genuine insights, laughter, and the reminder that none of us have to go at it alone.
