If you’ve ever felt torn between ambition and exhaustion, or wondered what success really looks like in this season of motherhood, this episode will help you redefine it on your own terms.

After interviewing hundreds of extraordinary women, from billion-pound founders and campaigners to working mums balancing family life, Zoe noticed a pattern. The women who thrive, no matter their path, share a handful of powerful habits that anyone can learn.

In this solo episode, Zoe brings together wisdom from years of conversations, her own research, and lived experience to reveal the 5 habits of highly successful mothers, not “success” as the world defines it, but success on your terms.

Zoe also shares practical micro-habits, from two-minute rules to time-blocking and burnout prevention, that help you feel calmer, more in control, and proud of the woman you’re becoming.

This episode is an empowering reminder that success isn’t luck, it’s built, moment by moment, through small daily choices that align with what matters most.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

• The one question to ask yourself before defining success
• Simple time-management shifts that free up mental load
• Why hyper-organisation creates more space for joy and creativity
• How to grow confidence by acting before you feel ready
• The truth about energy management and burnout prevention
