  Aug 14, 202646 minS2

  After two decades in corporate marketing dream-roles with QVC and Lilly Pulitzer, Eleni McCready took a major career leap to join boutique marketing agency PWRHOUSE Collective as a partner and now CMO, a change that aligned with her vision for her next chapter as a working mom. Today on the Mama Mode Podcast, Eleni and Emily discuss her professional journey from social media pioneer to senior director and the workplace support that kept her engaged through pregnancy and mom life (with twins!) and ultimately helped her make the transition away from corporate roles. Eleni also created and facilitates the Well Positioned workshop, designed to serve motivated women seeking to reclaim their story and step into meaningful roles that align with their values, experience, and perspective. Tune in to hear more about how motherhood continues to influence her career decisions, rewrote her definition of ambition, and encourages her to make the most of her professional and personal life..
