How to Build Your Second Village: Finding Support for Your Goals

You can have support raising your kids and still feel completely alone when it comes to your own goals. Who knows about the career move you’re considering, the business idea you keep sitting on, or the thing you’d love to try?

In this solo episode, Paulina introduces the second village: the relationships that support a mother’s growth, identity, and ambitions. That support might already exist in your circle, but people need to know what you want before they can help.

We get into:

  • Figuring out what you want for yourself when you’re used to handling what everyone else needs.

  • Making specific asks, from an introduction to an hour to finish an application.

  • Turning a good conversation into a relationship with actual follow-through.

  • Supporting each other without becoming everyone’s unpaid assistant.

Plus, an honest conversation about finding support when time, money, and childcare are already stretched.
