Going Back to Work After Motherhood: Beat Imposter Syndrome & Reinvent Your Career as a Parent

Are you a single parent after divorce, getting back into the workforce or pivoting careers, and stuck in the “I’m not qualified for this” loop? In this episode of the Risen Collective Podcast, Rebecca Lynn sits down with Camila, a career identity coach with a background in HR, tech recruiting, and career development. Camila is also an immigrant who rebuilt her own career in a new country and a second language, so she knows what starting over feels like. In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why Camila says about 80% of career change work is internal, not about the resume

  • How imposter syndrome shows up for moms and single parents re-entering the workforce

  • Why women often wait until they meet 100% of a job description, and how to find “social proof” for the boxes you think you don’t check

  • Why motherhood skills like empathy, intuition, and reading the room are real career superpowers, even in male-dominated fields like tech

  • How to use AI for resumes and applications, and why you still have to embody your story in the interview

  • How to identify your triggers at work (a boss, a coworker, an environment) so you can tell what’s your wound and what’s a real red flag

  • Why you don’t always have to leave your job to be happier in your career
