Podcast: The Career Flipper
October 16, 2025
If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “Is it me, or is everything changing?” same. 🙃
This week on The Career Flipper, I sat down with Lauren A. Tetenbaum, LCSW, JD, PMH-C , a former lawyer turned psychotherapist and author who helps women navigate life’s biggest transitions, from career pivots to motherhood to (yep) perimenopause and menopause.
Lauren’s story hit me right in the gut: she walked away from a “perfect on paper” career to build a life that actually fit. One centered around compassion, truth-telling, and helping women feel seen through the messiest seasons of change.
Lauren’s honesty, humor, and insight made me feel so understood, and I think it’ll do the same for many of you.
We get into:
✨ Walking away from careers that don’t fit anymore
✨ Identity shifts through major life changes
✨ How perimenopause impacts work, energy, and relationships
✨ Saying no (without guilt or overexplaining)
✨ Mental health, motherhood, and permission to pivot, at any age
If your career, body, or brain feels like it’s doing a full-blown system reboot right now, this one’s for you.
