The Resilient Working Mum
A podcast for high-performing working mothers - and the organisations that rely on them - navigating pressure, performance, and the invisible load of modern work and life.
You might look like you’re coping on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, reactive, or constantly “on call” behind the scenes. This is where we make sense of that experience and change it.
The focus of this podcast is on the internal patterns shaping how you think, respond, and show up at work and at home.
I’m Charlotte Haggie, resilience specialist, coach, and working mum. I help high-achieving women build the capacity to stay steady under pressure so that they can think clearly, lead effectively, and be present in the moments that matter.
Inside this podcast, we move beyond surface-level solutions like time-management and organisation.
You’ll learn how to:
• stay focused and make clear decisions under pressure
• respond with intention
• build self-trust and emotional stability
• reduce the mental load that drains your energy
• sustain high performance over time
For leaders and organisations, these conversations offer insight into the drivers of burnout, disengagement, and retention risk in high-performing women, along with a clearer understanding of what supports long-term performance and wellbeing.
This is about developing the capacity to handle complexity, pressure, and responsibility with clarity, steadiness, and control.

In this episode, I speak to bestselling author and coach Inna Segal about the childhood conditioning that shapes the way we show up as adults. We explore how early experiences can influence perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-responsibility, and the roles we unconsciously adopt in our families and relationships.
We discuss the impact of conforming to expectations, why making changes can be challenging when others are comfortable with who we've always been, and how greater self-awareness can help us reconnect with who we are beneath the identities we've learned to perform.
This is a great conversation about self-discovery, authenticity and building a life that reflects who you truly are rather than who you have been conditioned to be.

Do you ever find yourself replaying a conversation long after it is over, wondering whether you said the right thing, worrying about how someone interpreted your email or imagining what other people might be thinking about you?
If so, you are not alone.
So many women spend an enormous amount of mental energy editing themselves, monitoring other people's reactions to them, anticipating their judgment and trying to manage the opinions of others that they can't actually control!
Because this work all goes on in the background of our minds, we do not recognise just how much attention, emotional energy and resilience it consumes.
In this episode, we explore one of the most exhausting habits that often goes unnoticed in our lives and which robs us of so much: living in other people's heads instead of our own.
We talk about why our brains naturally pay attention to approval and belonging, how overthinking and people-pleasing can quietly drain your capacity and why resilient women learn to place their attention somewhere far more helpful.
If you feel mentally exhausted despite ticking off all the things on your to-do list, this episode will help you understand why and introduce a practical way to reclaim your focus, energy, and peace.
Resilience isn't something you're born with. It's a skillset you can build.

Why does uncertainty feel so stressful, and why do some people seem to handle it so much better than others?
In this episode, we explore one of the biggest hidden causes of stress for high-achieving women and working mums: the need for certainty.
You'll discover why waiting until you feel completely sure can keep you stuck, how resilience helps you build self-trust instead of relying on perfect outcomes and why confidence grows through taking the next step rather than having all the answers.
If you're navigating change, making difficult decisions, leading others or simply feeling overwhelmed by the unknown, this episode will help you approach uncertainty with greater calm, clarity and resilience.

Have you ever wondered when you stopped choosing yourself?
In this episode, we explore why so many high-achieving, driven, hardworking women who become mothers gradually lose touch with their own needs while carrying the mental load of work, family and everyday life.
You'll discover why resilience is about more than managing stress or practising self-care, how rebuilding your sense of agency can reduce resentment and emotional exhaustion and why reconnecting with what matters to YOU is essential for sustainable wellbeing, resilient leadership and a life that feels like you want to be in it!

What if burnout isn't simply the result of having too much to do, but of the way we've been taught to define success?
In this episode, I sit down with former Wall Street executive, Master Certified Executive Coach, and author Kenyada Meadows to explore the hidden cost of high-performance culture. We talk about why so many capable people tie their worth to their work and how the pressure to constantly achieve can impact our relationships, parenting, and wellbeing.
Kenyada shares how becoming a father and navigating the demands of senior leadership transformed his understanding of strength, introducing a new model of leadership rooted in presence, balance and emotional integrity. Whether you're a working parent, a people leader, or simply trying to build a more sustainable life, this conversation will challenge the way you think about success and what it truly means to lead well.

If you've tried all the stress-management advice and still find yourself overwhelmed, reactive, overthinking or unable to switch off, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we explore how pressure shapes the way high-achieving women think, feel and behave over time, often creating patterns that begin to feel like personality traits.
You'll learn why stress is about more than workload, how emotional habits become deeply ingrained and why building resilience is different from simply managing stress.
If you're tired of coping and are ready to understand what's really driving your stress, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective on change, self-trust and lasting resilience.

Have you ever noticed how you can spend time with some people and leave you feeling energised while other people leave you completely drained?
In this episode, we explore why other people's energy affects you more than you realise and how your nervous system constantly responds to the emotional states of the people around you.
You'll learn why high-achieving women often absorb stress, tension and emotional pressure from colleagues, family members and children, how this contributes to overwhelm, reactivity and exhaustion and why resilience begins with the ability to regulate your own internal state.
Whether you're a working mum, leader or professional woman navigating competing demands, this episode will help you understand the powerful connection between nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, leadership and sustainable performance at work and at home.

We explore why high-achieving women often become trapped in a cycle of over-responsibility, taking on more and more while feeling increasingly overwhelmed, exhausted and ineffective.
