Big Careers, Small Children

Finding a sustainable path forward as a dedicated professional and a present parent often feels like navigating without a map. Big Careers, Small Children from Leaders Plus is built from that very tension. Each episode is a candid conversation, hosted by Verena Hefti MBE, where seasoned leaders pull up a chair and share the unvarnished truths from their own journeys. You’ll hear how they’ve negotiated pivotal promotions, managed school runs alongside board meetings, and redefined success on their own terms. This isn’t about generic advice, but the specific strategies, compromises, and small victories that make a dual ambition possible. Tuning into this podcast means joining a community that rejects the idea that you must choose between a fulfilling career and being there for your young children. The discussions are rich with practical takeaways, moments of clarity, and the reassurance that comes from shared experience. It’s for anyone who wants to move forward with intention, finding a way that genuinely works for their family and their professional aspirations.
