Career Planning for Moms in STEM: Beyond the Job Title and Pay

SCIENCE CAREERS FOR MOMS with Anokhi Kapasi, PhD

Thinking about a career change? Before you make the move, it’s worth asking whether a new job will actually give you the flexibility, balance, and working conditions you’re looking for.

I recently joined the Solve for Mom podcast to talk about why capable, hardworking people often find themselves stuck in unhealthy environments, how workplace conditions can affect performance and well-being, and what to look for when considering your next role.

We explored what living systems can teach us about building careers that are both successful and sustainable, along with some useful questions to ask when evaluating a workplace while it’s evaluating you.

If you're weighing a career move or trying to find a healthier balance where you are, give this episode a listen.
