Host Molly Wipperfurth talks with real women who've made the leap: from corporate to creative, from climbing the ladder to building something new. Every conversation covers the practical realities of career reinvention — the finances, the trade-offs, the timeline, and what life actually looks like on the other side. If you're a woman in midlife rethinking your career, this is where your next chapter starts.

But between the caregiving, the family, the life that's already full, you're not sure there's room for it to become anything more — or if you're even allowed to find out. A gentle note before you listen: this episode includes Jenny's experience with postpartum depression and suicidal thoughts. If that's a tender topic for you, please take care with this one. Support resources are linked below. ABOUT THE GUEST: Jenny Huynh is the baker behind Wildflower Macarons, a home-based small business in Eden Prairie, Minnesota that she started in 2020 during a postpartum she didn't yet have a name for. Five years in, she's grown it from a kitchen hobby into a custom-order business known for intricate, hand-painted novelty macarons inspired by her Southeast Asian heritage — all while being the primary caregiver for her father-in-law and raising her own son. Her story is a real look at what it takes to grow a small business in midlife when life keeps adding to your plate, not subtracting from it. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: [00:02:20] How a birthday party started a business — with zero initial plan [00:05:33] What postpartum looked like for Jenny as a new mom, and why we all need to share our experiences [00:13:20] Going from kitchen hobby to officially licensed cottage food business — and why it was easier than she expected [00:16:06] The sandwich generation reality: raising her son and caregiving for her father-in-law while running a business [00:21:00] How she used her macarons to raise money for community rent during ICE raids — and why every role matters, no matter how small [00:30:01] The strength her husband sees in her that she didn't see in herself [00:31:53] The advice she'd give her younger self: why she's \"more than enough\" GUEST OFFER:…","meta_description":"You've got a hobby you can't stop doing.
