This week, we reflect on how something as simple as using our best glassware for daily routines can add a touch of magic to our lives. Inspired by setting the Thanksgiving and being short 1 crystal glass, (because the glass has been assigned to everyday use in my bathroom), I explore ways to find joy and enjoy luxury without waiting for special occassions.

In this episode, I explain why LinkedIn is one of the most powerful tools for networking and job searching, whether you’re a stay-at-home mom or a mid-career professional who hasn’t actively networked in years. If you didn’t start networking years ago, the second-best time to begin is today! I share examples of how LinkedIn helped me find opportunities, research companies, get introductions, and reconnect with old colleagues and references.
Many women from my recent job search challenge felt their networks were small, but I encouraged them and listeners to think bigger by including past colleagues, classmates, family, neighbors, and connections through kids or volunteering.I also cover LinkedIn basics:
✅ Use a recent profile picture
✅ Add relevant job titles in your headline
✅ Tell your story in the About section
✅ Include volunteer work and career gaps in the Experience sectionOnce your profile is ready, start connecting—LinkedIn’s suggestions make it easier! If you need more convincing that LinkedIn is worth your time, listen in to hear how my daughter landed a job through LinkedIn just a couple of weeks after creating her profile.

In honor of ADHD Awareness Month in October, I took the time to listen to "ADHD is Awesome" by Penn and Kim Holderness. One of my kids was diagnosed not too long ago, and being a fan of the Holderness Family, I knew their book would be both entertaining and useful.
I wasn't disappointed. I was surprised however by how much I personally identified with so many ADHD symptoms, especially with my current life changes. Becoming an entrepreneur leaves me to set my own schedule (which I love!) and combined with becoming a (semi-empty) nester with no kids in K-12 education, the rythyms and structure of daily life have changed significantly this past year.
I don't have a diagnosis of ADHD, but I found several strategies that Penn and Kim talked about to be immediately useful. From focusing on making one change at a time, to gamifying an activity (think: beat the clock), to having small, immediate rewards, I've already put these into practice for myself and will be sharing them with my kiddo and ADHD friends.
If you are interested in getting a copy of the book, you can grab it HERE.

Ready to transform your life during key transitions? In our 50th (!!) episode of the Her Next Chapter podcast, we promise to offer you profound insights on navigating identity shifts, especially for moms re-entering the workforce or facing an empty nest. Our wonderful guest, Gabrielle Ferguson, an expert consultant and leadership strategist, joins us to discuss how aligning your identity with your goals can ensure a smoother transition. This conversation is so rich in content that we've split it into two parts, with the first part airing this week.
Through our engaging discussion, Gabrielle and I dissect the process of reinvention and re-evaluation, diving into how past experiences shape current and future selves. We explore the creation of an identity map to recall former roles and accomplishments and decide what aspects to carry forward. Additionally, we shine a light on the often-overlooked value of caregivers, inspired by a Mother's Day Job Interview video and a revealing Salary.com study that estimated the value of a full-time caregiver's duties as $184K.
Join us as we celebrate this milestone episode and delve into how your evolving values and new responsibilities can be harmoniously integrated into your career and personal ambitions.
