Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms
Low Work Libido and Redefining Success (with best selling author Randi Braun)
23 Jun 2025
In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant Randi Braun, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Something Major and mom of three - for a real and energizing conversation about ambition, burnout, and redefining success.We dig into what she calls “low work libido” (yes, it’s a thing!), how motherhood shifts our drive, why the to-do list never ends (and why that’s not a problem), and what it actually looks like to go all-in on your career without burning out. This is the pep talk/truth bomb you didn’t know you needed. Topics in this episode:What “low work libido” really means—and why so many ambitious moms feel it How to redefine success on your own terms (and celebrate before the feedback comes) The myth of productivity and how delegation and joy create real impact Why being “self-devotional” matters more than being self-disciplined Real-life rituals to stay ambitious and balanced (without burning out)Show Notes & References:You can watch this episode on YouTube!
