Description
When I transitioned to a part-time role in a large company after the birth of our older son, I was asked over and over by working moms about how I made it happen. I was asked by friends and friends of friends and colleagues in the hallway. After doing some online research, I realized that there were plenty of moms who’d like to work part time – 47 percent according to Pew Research – but only 25% do. There is a need in the workplace to understand how to stay engaged in your career and be the mom you want to be. And the concept of Mompowerment was born.
The award-winning Mompowerment: Insights from Successful Professional Part-time Working Moms Who Balance Career and Family shares my own experience and advice as well as research with insights, stories, and advice from interviews with 110+ professional part-time working moms.

The book is written with the lens of a working mom interesting in a part-time role, but the advice can be used for transitioning to any approach that is not full time, such as remote work, a condensed schedule, or a job share. The tips, tricks, hacks, and mindset shifts can impact anyone interested in more work-life balance, no matter what that looks like.
