Happy Wednesday!
As a corporate sister and a proud (and busy)mama of two little ones, I’ve come to understand that career choices are not just about success, advancement and however many zeros you can add at the end of your salary.
No, it’s also about doctors’ appointments, early school pick-ups, and bouts of stubborn varicella, not to mention the recurring ear infections, sleepless nights and all-around exhaustion. Now what do these have to do with career choices? A whole lot, if you ask me.
Whereas before I could burn the candle at both ends, working late, hanging out with the team, now I can’t wait to get home to my family. And juggling work with family priorities has become an art, albeit a difficult to maintain, at times exhausting one.
As our careers and lives evolve as corporate sisters, so do our priorities, and our sense of what matters at work. Is it the high salary, synonymous with personal sacrifice, time away from home and traveling requirements, that matters now? Or is it the flexibility to make a living without sacrificing our families?
For many, this is not even a choice, as many a single parent needs this flexibility in order to make life work at all.
And is this just a concern for women, or should companies also strive to understand the tight rope many an ambitious, qualified and potential-filled corporate sister dances on?
