Are you a professional woman?
Do you struggle to feel heard or be seen?
Or maybe have a critical inner voice that says you're not enough and which limits your potential?

Maybe you feel that you're not enough? Good enough? Confident enough? Smart enough? Capable enough?

Repeat after us.
I AM WOMAN. I AM ME. I AM ENOUGH

Take your seat in the Broad Room. A supportive, no nonsense but emotionally literate place for professional women who need a confidante to unburden to, feel inspired by, to build their inner circle, and navigate business, career and personal lives whilst being unapologetically themselves both in work and out of it.

    S1 Ep1: The Broad Room Trailer
    Feb 12 2023
    We’re two different women in lots of ways but so very similar in others. At times we’ve both felt like we’ve been failing – as a professional, as a partner, in relationships and in life.

    We’ve struggled with confidence paradox (in some aspects of our life / work we’ve been confident) and in others completely doubted ourselves and our self-worth.

    We’ve both navigated corporate careers from shop floor to top floor, in male dominated industries.

    And we’ve both struggled to find role models (especially women in our careers) that we have related to as leaders, bosses, mentors who have encouraged us to be confident in our own skin and unapologetically ourselves. Who have cared enough and were savvy enough to realise we bring our whole selves to work and that affects how we show up.

    We're Jo Britton (AKA Mrs Mojo) and Carolyn Hobdey (AKA The Midlife Mistress), two Broads who have taken some real knocks, learned the hard way and invested heaps in our own inner work to get to the point where we're more than ok being our sassy selves.

    Step inside our Broad Room, an emotionally literate space for women to learn, feel inspired, unburden.

    Each episode we share our stories, experiences as well as tips, tools and techniques to help you navigate this thing called life - inside work and out of it.

    And each episode comes with a practical How to Guide that you can download.

    Welcome to The Broad Room.

    I struggled with chronic people pleasing – throughout my career and life in general.

    I found it hard to say no so I overworked - almost into an early grave.

    My imposter voice kept telling me, I wasn’t good enough. That I’d get found out any moment. That I had to prove myself, over and over. Professionally this was how I’d progressed in my career. Personally, it came with a cost too. Burn out, exhaustion and an on/off relationship with anti-depressants (that of course no-one knew about). But on the outside people thought I was confident. That I ‘had it all’. On the inside it was a whole different story.

    Carolyn did everything she thought she ‘should’ in her career. It led her to the boardrooms of some of the World’s largest employers. But she also hid a couple of secrets. Whilst professionally, she was an expert in HR and Change Management, she was tired of the bullsh*t. Tired of playing the game by someone else’s rules.

    And she had zero self-worth. Her personal life was a disaster - from porn addicted boyfriends to marriage to a lover who became more like a brother (and who had been hiding his homosexuality throughout their 15 year relationship), to a narcissistic and coercive partner who left her homeless in the week she lost her job.

    In this episode we share our stories as two Broads who have navigated our personal and professional lives and provide you with tips to help you too.

    We don’t believe there is some chap with a beard in the sky deciding stuff for everyone.

    We don’t buy into some magical force called ‘Karma’ that equalises the bad things people do

    We don’t put my faith in ‘The Universe’ bringing me what I need.

    Yet, as life continued to throw enough spanners in the works for Carolyn to fill a toolbox, it frequently felt like her destiny was not her own. She often wondered over the years whether there was any point in having a plan because someone, somewhere clearly had a different plan for her. Or so she thought.

    Of course, there are many things that happen that are out of our control. Life events, chance happenings, or actions of others that we just cannot legislate for. Being honest, has life turned out how we expected for any of us?! We doubt it.

    Even though Carolyn tried to be a ‘good girl’. She did everything she thought she ‘should’ in her career. That led her to the boardrooms of some of the World’s largest employers. But all the while she also hid some secrets. Whilst professionally she was an expert in HR and Change Management, she was secretly tired of the bullsh*t. Tired of playing the game by someone else’s rules.

    And she had zero self-worth. Her personal life was a disaster - from porn-addicted boyfriends to marriage to a lover who was more like a brother, then onto a narcissistic and coercive partner who left her homeless in the week she lost a job I loved.

    There were a lot of curve balls in her life!

    As for Jo, she struggled with chronic people pleasing – throughout her career and life in general. It’s why she and I ‘get’ each other at a profound level.

    Jo, too, found it hard to say “no” so she overworked - almost into an early grave. Jo’s imposter voice will be familiar to many women; it kept telling her she “wasn’t good enough”. She was waiting to get found out at any moment. She believed she had to prove myself, over and over. Professionally this was how we both progressed in our careers. It came with a cost. Burn out, exhaustion and a constant battle with our mental health, which, for Jo, led to an on/off relationship with anti-depressants (that of course no-one knew about). On the outside people thought we were confident. In control. That we each ‘had it all’. On the inside it was a whole different story.

    Like so many, Jo played smaller than her capabilities. Not going for jobs because she didn’t tick all the requirements – only to discover someone got appointed who ticked even fewer boxes. Not asking for a pay rise - only to learn that more junior colleagues were being paid more. Not offering opinions or ideas for fear of embarrassing herself - only to listen to others get plaudits for their ill-thought-through ideas.

    If you relate to any of this, this episode is for you.
    It's called From lost to leading. How to navigate changes when the world throws you curve balls.
