Workshop Description

Are you a wife or mother trying to succeed at home and work? Are you overwhelmed with the demands of keeping up with both worlds? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, you are not alone. 73% of mothers with children under 18 are part of the labor force. Mothers are 40% more likely to report that child care issues ruined their career, than fathers, and 23% of working parents say they have been treated as if they were not serious about their career because they have children. The desire to “have it all” at home and a successful career is growing amongst women in power and we’re learning that it is possible.

This workshop is designed for mothers who want to achieve success as a mother, wife, and business woman. Workshop participants will learn to identify stressors, warning signs, and coping skills to improve stress management, as well as identify needs of a parent-inclusive work environment/ employer. Participants will also learn how to identify problematic schedule patterns and replace them with schedules that help improve organization and decrease chaos at home.
