Description

In this week’s episode of the podcast, I sit down with powerhouse exec and mom, Sarah Armstrong - VP of Global Marketing Operations at Google and author of The Art of the Juggling Act. We dive deep into what it really takes to be a thriving executive and present mom without burning out. Sarah shares honest stories from her decades-long global career, the boundaries that made it all possible, and how she made pivotal decisions, like passing on promotions to protect her family and peace. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s okay to slow down without losing your ambition, or how to stop guilt from running your life, this one’s a must-listen. Topics in this episode: What executive-level boundaries actually look like (and how to hold them) Why saying “I’m doing the best I can” is a powerful guilt-replacement How to rethink success so it’s rooted in joy, not just title-chasing The exact questions Sarah asks herself every year to evaluate her career Why it’s not selfish (or weak) to ask for help—it’s smart strategy Show Notes & References:You can watch this episode on YouTube!
