Holly Garber is one of those people that you just want to learn from. Before she shifted her focus to career advisory and coaching, she ran her successful communications agency Golightly PR, where she worked with the likes of camilla and marc, Dion Lee and UNIQLO. But, the all consuming nature of that job coupled with mothering two small children eventually led Holly to reconsider her career life. And, she noticed it among others too, too often seeing people strive to build businesses that didn’t bring them joy, and that led them to give up too much life along the way.And so in amongst hearing about her motherhood and career journey, in this incredible chat with Holly, I feel like I received a mini working mum therapy and coaching session that I feel better off for having. —Thanks for listening!

Lana Murphy on the moment she realised she wanted to be a mum
When I first met Lana Murphy, there was one description that quickly came to mind: sunshine in a human. She’s fun, she’s warm, she loves a yarn, and so, it’s unsurprising that when she’s not with her son, she spends her work days as a journalist working for Channel 9.And while she’s now excitedly awaiting her second baby, she didn’t always want to be a mum. So here, we find out what changed and what she’d go back and tell herself about what to expect from motherhood. She also tells us about her early days of cutting her teeth in journalism by heading to the bush and living in her family’s caravan, and what it’s been like returning to a demanding job and preparing to go on parental leave 2.0. This is such a fun conversation and I appreciate the way Lana so honestly describes the push-pull that so many women face when it comes to the question of motherhood and what the biggest role of all might mean for their career.—Thanks for listening!
