"Have
you as a working Mum EVER felt alone and isolated, exhausted at having to cope
with the two different worlds of work and family, wondered how on earth you were
ever going to get through ALL the things you had to do - and everybody else
seemed to be doing it easier or smarter? Then this book is for you.
After 17 years
as successful facilitators and coaches (13 of those years as
working mums), we decided to finally take everything we had
learned from the hundreds of women in our program 'The
Working Mums Forum' and share it with you in such a way that
we cut right to
"what you need to do ...
to stay calm and confident as a working mum" - so that
you can enjoy the time that you are at work and with your
family, feel confident with your achievements in both areas, be
more satisfied with your results, let go of any guilt you have,
and be happier with your life!

Working Mothers' Secrets
Coaches
Last year I was fortunate to be able to participate in the
Working Mums Forum. It was a god-send for me as at that
time I had just moved in with my partner and his two
children and I was struggling to juggle the competing
interests of my career with those of my family. I was
stressed beyond words, exhausted and unwell and no matter
what I did, it was never enough.
Participating in the Working Mums Forum enabled me to take
stock of where I was at, and more importantly, work out
where I wanted to be and how to make it happen. The Working
Mums Forum encouraged me to really understand what I value
in life and it gave me the tools to ensure that I focused my
energies into the things that I valued. It’s the tools that
you pick up from the Working Mums Forum which make this
program unique – we covered everything from how to deal with
a mother’s guilt (just drop it!), having difficult
conversations, learning to say no, re-entering the workforce
after maternity leave, dealing with other’s perceptions to
managing your career and really having what you want.
I can honestly say that this program gave me back my sanity
and helped me. I thoroughly recommend it to all working
mums.
