We’re often told to “build our network” or “think about our impact” but no one ever tells us how. In this episode, we get real about what support and leadership actually look like for women navigating careers, caregiving, and big decisions.
Rather than treating networking and legacy as abstract or intimidating goals, we introduce two practical tools: your Web of Support and your Legacy Map.
These frameworks help you see what’s already working in your life, where you need to ask for more support, and how your quiet influence is already shaping the spaces around you.
What You’ll Learn:
How to identify and map your Web of Support: mentors, peers, partners, and communities who make the hard things more manageable.
How to spot gaps in your network and take steps to fill them before you burnout.
How to reframe your legacy as a living, daily practice not a distant milestone.
Three practical actions to help you move forward with intention and clarity.
