6: Podcasting, Imposter Syndrome and Community with Megan Tobler
What if losing your job was the best thing that ever happened to you?
When Megan Tobler unexpectedly found herself unemployed during pregnancy, she realised her “safe” corporate career wasn’t so safe after all. That moment sparked a complete life pivot - leading her to create Self StartHER, a thriving podcast and online community for ambitious women building businesses around their lives.
Listen in as we talk entrepreneurship, motherhood, self-doubt and redefining success on your own terms.

About The Host:I'm Victoria Phipps - a Mum of two, family photographer, charity co-founder, marketing person and now podcaster! 🎙️
I was raised by a nurturing Mother and an entrepreneurial Father and have inherited traits from both, so the tension between ambition and motherhood is one I grapple with on a daily basis!
I'm fascinated to hear the stories of other women on a similar path, who are striving to build thriving businesses whilst being present for their children. It's a tough juggle, but I hope the conversations shared on this podcast help Mums in business feel less alone and inspired to keep going in pursuit of their dreams.
