drumroll please…
Woman in Progress is coming back for Season 2! 🎙️
I’ve been wanting to bring my podcast back for a long time, and I’m sooooo excited that it’s finally happening. And because there are a bajillion podcast studios in Dubai, I decided I’m going to record video to accompany the podcast, as well!
I just love podcasting. I love having the space to explore an idea, share what I’m thinking, tell stories, ask questions, and have conversations that don’t necessarily fit neatly into an Instagram caption or LinkedIn post. I love to yap and I love to do it in long form.
And if you’ve been reading my writing here or anywhere else on the world wide web for any length of time, you probably know that I have A LOT of thoughts.
About work. Ambition. Success. Identity. Relationships. The expectations we place on ourselves. The lives we think we’re supposed to want versus the ones we actually want to live.
And lately, I’ve had more ideas for podcast episodes than I know what to do with, which is so fun.
But there’s something else that makes bringing the podcast back particularly exciting.
I’m not the same woman I was when I first launched Woman in Progress in 2022.
I’ve changed careers, moved countries, questioned things I once believed about success, and made some pretty unconventional decisions about what I want my life to look like.
And as I approach my 40th birthday, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to be a woman in progress at this stage of life.
Not someone who has everything figured out. Not someone who has arrived at some final, perfected version of herself.
But a woman who is still learning, growing, questioning, changing her mind, and making intentional decisions about who she wants to be and how she wants to live.
That’s really what this next season is about.
Woman in Progress is a podcast for ambitious women who are rethinking what it means to be successful, fulfilled, and happy.
We’ll explore the intersection of work, ambition, identity, personal growth, and the messy, sometimes uncomfortable process of creating a life that actually feels like your own.
Because I don’t believe we have to stop being ambitious to have fulfilling lives outside of work. But I also don’t believe that everything we’ve worked so hard to achieve has to define who we are or what we choose to do next.
I want this podcast to be a place where we can question the things we’ve been taught to want, challenge the expectations we’ve placed on ourselves, and consider what’s possible when we give ourselves permission to do things differently.
And while I have a growing list of topics I can’t wait to explore, I also want to hear from YOU. Especially if you’re a high-achieving, mid-career woman who has spent years building a successful career and is starting to wonder what else she wants from her life.
What are you thinking about lately?
What questions are you asking yourself about your career, your ambitions, your relationships, or the next chapter of your life?
What are you struggling with that you wish more women were talking about?
Are there things you feel like you’re supposed to have figured out by now, but don’t?
I would genuinely love to know.
Because as much as this podcast is an opportunity for me to express myself and share my ideas, I also want it to be a resource for you. A place where you can hear something that makes you think differently, feel less alone in what you’re navigating, or finally ask yourself a question you’ve been avoiding.
So please, leave a comment and tell me what you’d love to hear me talk about. No topic or question is off limits.
Season 2 of Woman in Progress is officially launching soon, and I can’t wait to share what I’ve been working on.
In the meantime, stay tuned. And if you haven’t already, subscribe to the podcast wherever you listen so you don’t miss the first episode.
Here’s to being women in progress.
