  • Inspiring podcast for parents

    Started listening during my second maternity leave, as I started freelance work with the hope to do it full time in future. The podcast is so inspiring to help me keep working towards that goal. Also very educational hearing about the challenges female founders encountered, and how they balance work with parenting.

  • What a place to start

    When I found this podcast I was going to start at the beginning but when I saw 51 episodes I thought I'd start most recently which was with Mickaela Jones of Pleasure Gap and what a place to start!

    I was so impressed with the way Caroline and Mikaela spoke about a subject that some people still (šŸ™„) struggle to discuss. Caroline listened really actively and had such an interesting and honest conversation which I have since shared with all my friends!

    I was so fascinated by the restrictions an... more

  • Such an important conversation!

    I’m not exactly the target audience (I don’t have children nor can I say I’m even thinking about that!), but the conversation this podcast raises between real women about the challenges of juggling running a successful business and growing a family is an important listen for anyone in the workplace. Understanding the struggle and triumphs of these incredible women can broaden our perspectives, ignite empathy, and inspire us to appreciate the tremendous efforts required to achieve work-life balan... more

  • Inspirational listening for women in business

    I’ve really enjoyed listening to Caroline interview inspirational founders, entrepreneurs and business owners. Starting out in business can be daunting, and listening has helped me feel ā€˜part of the club’, whilst helping me practically and keeping up my motivation. Keep up the good work Caroline šŸ‘

  • Episodes are relatable in many way

    Great to hear Caroline in her element and talking so passionately about what she loves with other professionals in her field.

    Although I don’t have my own business, and probably unlikely to in the near future, I can still relate to the maternal load/ parent juggle to get that work life balance just right. Looking forward to listening to more episodes!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

E95: Why you should bring your kids along on the business journey with Alice Holland-Lu, founder of The Female Archetypes
Q: How did motherhood influence your product design and brand vision?
Motherhood reframed her priorities, pushing her to design adjustable, breathable garments that accommodate changing bodies and life events, and to build a brand that validates women as they are rather than forcing them into fixed sizes or aesthetic norms.
E95: Why you should bring your kids along on the business journey with Alice Holland-Lu, founder of The Female Archetypes
Q: What made you think the concept could actually work, given the initial challenges?
Alice describes starting from a personal need and testing ideas with close pattern cutters and manufacturers, iterating based on real-user feedback, and maintaining a hands-on, in-person approach to problem-solving rather than expecting quick, conventional fashion industry cycles.
E103: My experience of motherhood, business and what I would have done differently, Lucy Legal interviews Caroline
Q: Where do you see the podcast in five years, and what are your hopes for its future?
Continue storytelling and grow partnerships and sponsorships to keep it revenue-generating, while expanding the guest roster and maintaining the community.
E103: My experience of motherhood, business and what I would have done differently, Lucy Legal interviews Caroline
Q: Do you have any practical tips for business owners who are going to step away from their business for a period (e.g., three months)?
Create a break plan or business plan for the absence, ensure there is a clear handover process, bring on a capable team, and document processes and a simple tech setup so operations can run smoothly without you.
E103: My experience of motherhood, business and what I would have done differently, Lucy Legal interviews Caroline
Q: You have shared before that you have faced a number of challenges on your journey of motherhood. Is there anything that you look back on now that you would do differently?
Less apologetic: advocating for time with my baby and setting boundaries earlier, and not being afraid to say no to things like late dinners or exhausting schedules.
