Returning to work after becoming a mum can stir up more than logistics—it can unravel your sense of identity. In this episode of Mama’s Flightpath, Jools is joined by John Fleming, a psychotherapist, master coach, and specialist in transactional analysis and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).
Together, they explore what it really means to become yourself again after baby. From grief and parenting to the tension between who you were and who you’re becoming, this soulful conversation is packed with insight for first-time mums, working mums, and anyone navigating the return-to-work transition.
John brings decades of expertise and deep emotional wisdom to help you reconnect with your truth and design a life that feels aligned.
