When Yasmine, a then-mom of two on maternity leave, decided to go back to school instead of back to her day job, she knew she was taking the less-traveled path. Then she got pregnant, started her first "internship" at 34, and things really got interesting. Or, as she puts it, very freeing. Join us in Ep. 37 as we discuss making changes as a mom, a Millennial, and what it is that really gets in our way. “For me, for a long time, my limiting belief was it's too late," Yasmin says. "It's not." We also delve into the identity crisis (and guilt - because I spent so much time on this already!) that can come with career change, reframing failure, and how motherhood actually helped Yasmine feel more reconnected to herself and her goals. We also get to move counties, and talk about how it felt to be a student and then pregnant intern in your mid-thirties so, buckle up.

More on Yasmine on IG @pivot.by.design. More on the identity shift (er, crisis?) that can come with career change, and on getting out of your bubble and figuring out what to do next, in Ep. 5 of Life Leaps Podcast with JoDee Scissors.
