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.

This episode is a fabulous conversation with Mahnaz Sharif all about boundaries and how setting boundaries can support our productivity and our wellbeing! 
Mahnaz empowers Mums whose business dreams are buried under family needs. Most mums know the feeling of being sandwiched between what their family needs from them and the business they want to create.
With a degree in mathematics and 20 years of experience as an analyst, Mahnaz is a Mum of two teens and the Founder of the “Build with Boundaries Podcast” - her clients learn to work in harmony, and respect their time and energy so they can carve out time for them, their life, their family and their business!
Through overcoming her own challenges, Mahnaz developed the H.A.R.M.O.N.Y Blueprint crafted especially for Mums to avoid the ‘struggle with the juggle’. It’s not just about business but also about joy and real focus in both personal and professional life.

As a young girl, the thought of exercise made me feel exhausted, heavy and lethargic.  I would do everything I could not to exercise. 
Little did I know that a few years later, I would be a rower, would be running half marathons and would be completing a half ironman.  My story is one that I think that we could possibly all relate to in some area of our lives. It might give you the motivation to shift some beliefs that are keeping you stuck, stopping you from setting boundaries, longing for some time for you, wishing that you could feel calmer and find more joy in your life. 
I hope you enjoy it!

You are stressed and overwhelmed and just wish you had a moment for yourself.  The to do list goes on and on and you aren't sure when you are going to get it all done.  You snap at the children, want to cry and feel like you are going to break at any moment. 
This episode looks at how this state of stress can lead to the fact that we have even less time and how that then perpetuates the cycle as we get more exhausted and feel more panicked and anxious. 
But there is a way out! Emotional self-regulation strategies can support you so that you feel more in control and at ease and so that you have the energy to serve others and set boundaries so that you have some time just for you!

At the end of the day, do you find it really hard to close your laptop and stop thinking about the to do list and all the things that you didn’t get done? Do you feel drawn back to it and find yourself working after hours or unable to be present with your family or even yourself? 
The overstimulation of all that is required of us during the day can leave us exhausted and on top of this, we find ourselves distracted and with not enough time. This makes it hard to close down at the end of the day and shift our focus to the other roles in our lives. 
I have experienced this myself and have many clients who have found this a challenge for them so today, we are talking about some of the reasons we find this so difficult and how you can change your relationship with your work, your laptop and your to do list so you can be present in the other areas of your life and the relationships that you have outside of your working life.

We all long for more time.  Time to do the have tos and time to do the want tos! But it feels like there is never enough of this precious resource and we are running around trying to fit everything in while feeling flustered and exhausted.
Today, I offer three practical ways that you can take back your time so that you can get more done in the day and so that you can feel energized and on top of things.  You can stop feeling that mom guilt that happens when you still have things to do but know that they need you. You might even have some time to do the things that rejuvenate you and give you energy.

When the to do list is as long as our arms, it is so easy to jump from task to task, suddenly remembering that something needs to be done or reacting to a request for something from one of the many people who have needs or expectations of us. We are distracted, there isn't enough time to fit everything in and we end up feeling guilty for not working or parenting properly. 
When we are overstimulated by all the demands that are coming at us from outside, we carry a hidden stress that is heavy and we end up not having any time for the fun things in life. 
The flustered, chaotic feeling that comes from jumping around from task to task is exhausting while the feeling of being in flow and getting things done is hugely invigorating and fills us with energy. In this episode, we look at the things that we can stop doing so that we can find that place of flow, of invigoration and energy that will allow us to be productive and get things done so that we can be present with our work and with our children when we close up our laptops at the end of the day.

On 9 June 2022, my two-year-old daughter was wheeled into theatre to undergo open heart surgery.  As I watched her prepare for the surgery and in the days following this ordeal, I was in awe of how she managed the whole process and it got me thinking about why she was able to do so with such calm and ease and peace.
It made me think about how we could live our lives more like this and so I offer my journey through this process and my learnings from this journey in today’s episode.

Do you feel like you are constantly chasing your tail, trying to balance the time you spend at work and the time you spend at home? Do you wish you had more time for your children and yourself and that you could give up some of your work time but you need the money? Does the work life balance seem impossible to find and you wish you could feel less stressed and more in control? 
Today, we are talking about the tension between time and money when it comes to being a working mum and what we can do to ease that tension so that we can be more productive and more present both at work and at home.

Do you find that you never have a chance to do the things that you love?  Or you actually can’t even remember what it was that you used to do that brought you joy? One of the biggest problems I have come across for working moms is finding ‘me-time’ or taking any time for ourselves if the time does come up or is offered to us. We end up out of balance, impatient and frustrated. 
What I have learnt is how much better we are as moms, employees, managers and people when we are energised by doing things for ourselves or doing the things that make us happy.  So, today I offer 3 ways that you might be blocked from doing the things that bring you joy and three ways that you can find your way back to those things so that you can feel better.
When you feel better, you can be more organized, can focus better and be more productive and you can find the peace and ease that sometimes feels so hard to experience as a working mom!
