In this episode of the Big Careers, Small Children podcast, Verena Hefti MBE speaks with Dr Nara Daubeney, CEO & Co-Founder of Phaim Pharma and NHS Surgeon.
Nara is also a mum of four. She shares her deeply honest and inspiring reflections on what it takes to build a big career and raise a thriving family without sacrificing either.
From designing Easter hats at 5am to leading a clinical-stage biotech company, Nara brings warmth, clarity, and wit to a conversation about redefining ambition, letting go of guilt, and building systems that work for your life, not against it.
Together, they explore:
✔️ Why guilt is baked into motherhood and how to release it
✔️ How to balance ambition with presence during different parenting phases
✔️ Why support systems are essential (and how to build your own, even without nearby family)
✔️ What makes someone ready to be a CEO
✔️ How leadership and parenting challenges mirror each other
✔️ What teens really need from you, and how that shapes career decisions
✔️ Why perfection isn’t the goal, and how embracing imperfection is freeing
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- How to redefine success on your own terms
- Why motherhood and leadership are not in conflict
- The mindset shift that helps you build a sustainable career
- How to set boundaries and run your life like a system
- The role of authenticity, values, and reflection in leadership
