Have you ever been told that work-life balance for women in STEM is a myth?

Do you want a meaningful science career and a rooted family life —but you worry that you’re “failing at both”?

Are you running low on time, energy, and sleep, trying to keep up with grant deadlines, conferences, and kids?

Do you wonder if negotiating career shifts, flexible jobs, STEM-adjacent roles, or maternity leave is proof you’re not a serious scientist?

Welcome to Science Careers for Moms — a TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST for women in STEM who want a career path where they can thrive in science without sacrificing their family or personal wellbeing.

Hi! I’m Anokhi Kapasi, a PhD researcher and mom of two boys. I created this show because I know what it is like to feel torn between being a serious scientist and a present mom —and to realize that “trying harder” is not a strategy.

This show is different because it integrates career and life planning strategies designed specifically for science-minded moms in a work culture that was not built for caregivers. Every episode blends interviews with other scientists who have been where you are and career planning deep-dives where you will learn the answer to questions like:🎯 Are there decision-making frameworks to help me navigate pivots, return-to-work, academia vs. industry…or to even know what the “next right move” is?🎯 How do I set career goals that allow me to stay ambitious, connect with my family, and feel like myself again?🎯 Is work–life balance for working moms in STEM actually possible, and what does it look like in practice?🎯 Can I stay in science & tech without burnout, guilt, or losing sight of myself?

STEM-trained moms, I’ll teach you how to make confident career decisions that align with your whole life —not just professional development.

🎧 FOLLOW this show and never choose between being a good mom or a good scientist again!🗣️ GUEST INTEREST FORM: https://calendly.com/anokhi-solveformom/guests-on-solve-for-mom 📩 QUESTIONS: [email protected]🌐 VISIT:www.SolveForMom.com for more resources & information
