In this short and sharp "peacast" episode of The Skip, I share insights from a conversation with a pregnant Product Executive facing a career dilemma. She was convinced she needed to leave her current company, but while searching for a job, she got pregnant. And now she's been offered a new role at her company due to a reorganization. We discuss her options: accept the role, take a less senior role post-maternity leave, or seek opportunities elsewhere.

We also discuss:
- Maximizing career potential without sacrificing family
- Reframing career decisions in the context of long-term growth
- How to have it all, just not at once
- The value of wartime leadership experience
- Overcoming job search anxiety
