I'm excited to announce that I've been featured over at 9 Lives for Women, a multi-channel blog about the different life stages working women transverse. Kathryn Sollmann, 9 Lives' Managing Partner and Founder, interviewed me on my experience returning to work as a new mother and surviving the "motherhood guilts." You can read the post here.
I really enjoy reading Kathryn's insightful posts on the various issues women deal with in their professional lives. Whether it be trying to break into (or back into) the work force, deciding whether to stay on your current career path, or how to make the most of your retirement planning, 9 Lives for Women has something for everyone. Here is what the blog is all about, in Kathryn's own words:
9 Lives is a multi-channel blog site that speaks directly to women in 9 distinct life stages in and out of the workforce. I developed the concept after a decade of helping women find ways to restart or advance their careers. From this experience, I know that from college years to retirement years women live many lives—both in and out of the workforce. There’s not one set path…we choose or try to make the best of many twists and turns.
We juggle paid and unpaid work with complex family responsibilities. We often have one foot in and one foot out of the workforce. We search for ways to earn both green and “psychic” dollars. We have stops and starts and times when we don’t feel like the person who got that amazing degree or held that prestigious job. We want to feel productive, engaged and valued at every age and stage, and we look to other smart women for advice and encouragement.
Some women move sequentially through the “9 Lives”–and many others move back and forth or feel stalled in one particular stage. 9 Lives gives you the confidence to move on, or the conviction that you’re exactly where you honestly want to be.

I encourage you all to check it out!
