That is right Sausers, Danielle is a repeat guest and our first guest on Season 3. She is coming back to talk about her career growth all while expanding her family. When you first met Danielle, S1 Ep 18, as a Harvard Business School graduate herself, she helped us through the thought process of getting an MBA or not. As our first guest on Season 3, Danielle joins hosts Molly and Liz to talk about starting her family and growing her career. As many people are looking to start and grow a family and during that time they can often question or think about the impact on their career Danielle is here to answer questions and how she grew her career (and started a brand new job pregnant) all the while expanding her family. Danielle also touches on how to support colleagues who are starting to grow families OR coming back from leave - tips on how to support them.

This week on The Saus your hosts discuss Growth vs Fixed mindset. As Molly's son is growing his LAX career and Liz watched a handful of colleagus finish a marathon, this was a perfect topic for this week. You know when you look back on something and go, "That was tough, but I learned a lot" or "That was tough, but I'm glad I went through it." Those are often signs of a growth mindset. Often times when things get hard - inside and outside of work - we want or need to find a way to get through it (because sitting how things currently are isn't what you desire). Once we do, we are happy it is behind us, but we've learned a lot from it and are in a 'better position.' Using Dr Carol Dweck's research that breaks down a growth vs fixed mindset, Molly and Liz talk about examples and times inside and outside of work they have had both fixed and growth mindset.
