•OnlineBusiness, Career, & Motherhood
OnlineJuggling a career with the beautiful chaos of motherhood is one of the biggest challenges many women face. It's a journey filled with unique hurdles, powerful lessons, and moments of profound growth. And you don't have to navigate it alone.
Join us for a candid and inspiring panel discussion where we'll explore the real-world experiences of working mothers. We'll move beyond generic advice to tackle the topics that truly matter, from sleep deprivation and building strong support systems to advocating for better workplace policies.
What We'll Discuss:
- Work-Life integration. How do you balance professional aspirations with the demands of motherhood, and how has having children reshaped your career goals?
- Company support. What benefits and policies can companies implement to genuinely support working mothers? We'll discuss everything from on-site childcare to flexible hours and dedicated pumping rooms.
- The Power of Community. How can we better organize our friends and colleagues to create a robust and reliable support network?
- Practical Strategies. Get a real-world advice on managing sleep, dealing with guilt, and using new technologies—including AI—to make your life a little easier.
This is more than just a panel; it's a conversation. It's a chance to connect with others who understand your journey, share your own experiences, and leave with practical, actionable insights.
