Being a working mom is complicated, confusing, and hard. There’s guilt, there’s sacrifice, and there’s stress. And on top of that, there’s a career to manage, and bosses to please that just don’t seem to understand.
The statistics are grim. In fact, 1 in 5 working moms say they’ve been passed over for an important assignment or for a promotion because they have children.
But you CAN have your cake and eat it too.
Working moms outpace, outperform, and outwork their peers. Things like efficiency, emotional intelligence, negotiations, time management, and multitasking are second nature. So why don’t companies make an effort to support working moms? And how can working moms advocate for themselves in the workplace and in their careers? We’ll be asking working mothers who are CEOs, entrepreneurs, managers, scholars, industry leaders and influencers those exact questions each week.
Because frankly, we’re tired of asking for a seat at the table. It’s time to make our own table. And we’re going to talk about how.
I’m Zabeen Mirza and this is Moms At Work.
