The journey to working motherhood is not an easy one and we must pave the way for more women to be able to make it. Why? You've worked so hard to build your career before baby and it can be very rewarding afterwards. Society and corporations are also better off increasing diversity, equity and inclusion, as well as, the bottom-line when women are equally represented at the top.
My story and those of so many other women can help you to realize love is the most important thing you can give your children, we must increase parental leave and drive for pay equity and most importantly turn our mind set from 'mom guilt' to guilty pleasure when it comes to having a career and raising the world's best kids!
