Ep. 56 - Stay-at-Home Motherhood's PR Makeover: Author Neha Ruch Tosses Outdated Labels & Makes Room for Ambition
The stereotype of the stay-at-home mom is finally getting a rebrand thanks to Neha Ruch.A mom of two, Neha leapt onto the national stage with her bestseller “The Power Pause,” a primer for ambitious mothers leaning into family life.This success, she says, didn’t happen overnight; she planted seeds over a decade ago through her online community “Mother Untitled.”Neha’s work offers stay-at-home moms the dignity they deserve through some simple truths: raising children is a full time job and it requires support and respect.She urges moms to redefine success, plus:* how to strategically navigate a resignation to keep communication open and stay connected to an industry* how to set goals through your downshift to invest in your next career move* shining a light on mothers in the “gray area” that mix both work and motherhood on their own terms* why being a “lady who lunches” and networking goes beyond leisure and creates opportunity* conversational scripts to explain a pause and open the door to future optionsNeha’s curiosity allows for a refreshing, honest conversation that will benefit any mother.
