Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms
Why Ambitious Women Need Status More Than Power (with Alison Fragale)
06 Oct 2025
In this week's episode of the podcast, I’m joined by Alison Fragale, as we tackle the deceptively simple but life-changing question: What do I really want? If you’ve ever felt stuck, second-guessed your desires, or wondered what’s next for your career and life, this episode will give you clarity and direction. We share why it’s so hard for working moms to answer this question, the cultural and personal reasons behind that struggle, and the exact process I use with clients to uncover their true desires and build a regret-free life. You’ll walk away feeling empowered, grounded, and ready to take your next steps with confidence. Topics in this episode:Why figuring out “what do I want?” feels so confusing for ambitious working moms How culture, motherhood, and people-pleasing disconnect us from our true desires The difference between want and desire—and why desire matters more The “internal compass” process: values, identity, and purpose as your North Star Real client stories of clarity, decisive action, and living without regretShow Notes & References:Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Ready to explore if it’s right for you?
