Do you feel stuck in a role you have outgrown, but unsure how to make your next move without risking your reputation or burning out?
Are you doing high-level work, carrying invisible responsibility, and still wondering why your impact is not reflected in your title or pay?
Do you know you are capable of more, but feel unclear on how to position yourself for a promotion or raise without working even harder?
Are you tired of waiting to be noticed and ready to be compensated for the value you already bring?
You are in the right place.
Career Growth for Working Women is the podcast for ambitious corporate women who want to advance their careers, increase their income, and gain recognition without overworking, people-pleasing, or shrinking to fit outdated expectations.
I am Shannon, a Promotion and Compensation Coach, and I help women fast-track their next promotion by teaching them how to show their value so clearly that leadership cannot overlook them.
Through my 5% Method, we focus on positioning you for meaningful raises, promotions, and career growth because when you consistently perform above and beyond, your pay should too.
Each week, you will get honest conversations, practical strategy, and mindset shifts around career advancement, visibility, burnout recovery, confidence, and compensation so you can grow your career sustainably and strategically.
Grab your coffee, or reheat it for the third time, and let’s talk about how to grow your career in a way that actually pays off.

74 | Gratitude Over Grind — Finding Peace in the Chaos
Black Friday is loud.
Life is loud.
Motherhood is loud.
Your brain? Probably the loudest of them all.
That’s exactly why today’s episode is intentionally quieter — a soft place to land in a season that often pulls working moms in every direction at once.
This isn’t the Pinterest version of gratitude.
This is the real version: gritty, grounding, messy, honest, emotional, and beautifully human.
In this solo episode, Shannon walks you through what gratitude looks like for working moms who are exhausted, overwhelmed, overstimulated… yet still showing up every single day.
You’ll hear stories, nervous-system-soothing truths, leadership insights, and three incredibly powerful gratitude practices designed for FULL lives — not perfect ones.
If your heart needs an exhale, this is your episode.
In This Episode You’ll Discover:
✔ The truth about modern gratitude no one talks about
✔ Why working mom gratitude is different
✔ The four gratitude truths every working mom lives (but rarely hears)
✔ How your natural leadership style shapes your gratitude
Each one experiences gratitude differently — and needs different types of peace.
Three grounding gratitude practices that fit REAL life
Not time-consuming. Not complicated. Not another thing on your list. Just micro-moments that shift your nervous system and bring you home to yourself.
This episode is medicine for the woman who is tired of holding it all together.
🎧 Listen If You’re Craving:
➡️ A moment of real peace
➡️ Gentle emotional grounding
➡️ Perspective in the chaos
➡️ A release from guilt and pressure
➡️ A reminder that you’re human first
➡️ Gratitude that feels relief, not responsibility
This episode will soften you, steady you, and help you breathe again.
💖 Final Love Note
You don’t have to grind your way into worthiness. You don’t have to earn rest. You don’t have to do more to feel enough. You get to breathe. You get to slow down. You get to choose peace — even today. Especially today.
