I still remember holding my 11-month-old in one hand and my degree in the other.
I was ready to take over the world.
But at some point, every ambitious woman who has started a family gets asked the same question:
“How will you manage both?”
Not how she feels or what support she needs.
Because for years, the message has been clear.
Take a step back and accept that career growth and family life can’t happen at the same time.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Because standing there, holding both, I knew I wasn’t going to choose.
And neither should you.
The women who continue to grow in their careers after having children don’t do it because it’s easy.
They do it because they make intentional choices that set them up for success.
They:
- Set clear boundaries so work and family don’t constantly fight for their attention.
- Negotiate for flexibility because productivity isn’t about hours at a desk.
- Leverage a strong network not just for opportunities but for the right support.
Most importantly, they refuse to accept the idea that they have to choose between the things that matter most.
If you’ve been holding back - if you’ve told yourself, “Maybe this isn’t the right time” - I want you to ask yourself this:
What if the right time isn’t something you wait for?
What if it’s something you create?
Your career doesn’t have to slow down just because life moves forward.
And if you’re ready to step back in, you don’t have to do it alone.
