What if growth didn’t have to be loud, measurable, or tied to a to-do list?

In this reflective episode of the Maternity Leave Roadmap series, I’m sharing what early postpartum really felt like and how disorienting it was to go from clear, daily business progress to the invisible work of motherhood. If you’ve ever felt like you’re falling behind just because your growth doesn’t look the same, I hope this episode reminds you that this season still counts. You are growing, even if no one else can see it.
