I Left My Job to Care for My Family - Was It Worth It? [W&S 144]
Description
Balancing career and family — can you really have both?
Can stepping back from your career ever mean moving forward in life?
Explore the real trade-offs behind choosing family over work — and whether it truly means falling behind.

🏡 Cheryl Liew — Chief Home Officer and former marketing & events professional, now navigating a season of caregiving while building a flexible, portfolio-style career.
They unpack:
• The identity crisis of stepping away from work
• The fear of losing visibility and relevance
• How to reframe a career break as growth, not failure
• The mindset shift needed to thrive in a new season
🎧 Does choosing family mean losing your edge — or finding a new kind of success?
