This week, we sit down with Tara Nesser and Lauren Zaleski, founder and partner of Level Up Talent, for their podcast debut. From Tara’s leap into solopreneurship to Lauren’s decision to leave corporate recruiting for more motherhood-friendly flexibility, they get real about what it takes to reinvent your career and navigate a career change.

We talk about the identity, mindset, and confidence shifts behind a career pivot, the trade-offs that come with making a big change, the “week without should” exercise, why women often wait until they meet 100% of a job’s qualifications before applying, and how to know whether a career pause is actually the right move.

Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom considering returning to work, navigating a career change, thinking about a career pivot, or feeling burned out and unsure what’s next, this episode is packed with practical, real-talk career advice for figuring out what comes next.
