]]> Jessie Rettinger jessie.rettinger@undivided.life Is Work the Break? On the third episode of Catholic Working Mom, host Jessie Rettinger sits down with Kate Eberle, a content marketing consultant in Wisconsin and a new mom of one. Kate studied history at Vanderbilt on her dad's advice to learn how to write, fell in love with content marketing during a college internship, and kept saying yes to side clients, including the Abiding Together podcast. In 2023, at her husband's suggestion, she left her full-time job to grow her own business, and a few months later she was pregnant with her daughter. Together they talk about discerning a career transition, making decisions for the season you're in instead of forever, why dreaming is worth making room for, and the surprise of finding that work can feel like a break. IN THIS EPISODE • Kate's husband's question: what if you quit your job? • Knowing the difference between overwhelmed and wrong • Dreaming as a way to trust the desires God puts on your heart • Setting boundaries with social media when it's also your job • Is work a break from motherhood, or is motherhood a break from work?
