About this Event

Bringing Mums together to Rebuild, Connect & Thrive – Powered by Mums Who Build (The MOB)


Back to work, but not back to how things were.
If motherhood has shifted everything—your priorities, your identity, your confidence, even what “success” means—you’re not alone. This event is for mums who are returning to work, pivoting into something new, or simply wondering what’s next.

Join Evie Squires, founder of , for an honest and uplifting session on navigating work after kids. As a mum and champion for flexible, fulfilling careers, Evie has helped countless women rebuild their professional identities in ways that actually work around family life.


She’ll be talking about:
-How motherhood reshapes our careers (often for the better)
-What returning to work really feels like—beyond the polished narratives
-The confidence wobble, and how to steady it
-Setting boundaries without guilt
-Why the “mum gap” is packed with valuable, underestimated experience

Because becoming a parent shouldn’t hold you back from a career you love—it should help shape it.

Following the talk, Evie will be joined by for a fireside discussion. Kellie brings deep coaching expertise and practical tools to help mums navigate the messy, meaningful middle of career and caregiving. Together, they’ll share insights, answer questions, and open up a real conversation about modern motherhood and work.

You’ll leave feeling seen, supported, and inspired—whether you’re planning your return, already back at work, or exploring a new direction entirely.



THE MEET-UP - WHAT TO EXPECT:

Becoming a mother is life-changing, but too often, it comes with isolation, loss of identity, and a lack of spaces designed for mums rather than just their babies. While countless activities exist for little ones, The Big MOB Mum Meet-up is about empowering mums first—offering friendship, networking, expert talks, and a sense of community in an inspiring space.
