When career advisors Barri Waltcher and Pamela Weinberg created MYOBMoms (“mind-your-own-business-moms”) with an aim to help women transition from parenting back into the workforce, they knew first-hand just how tricky it can be to make the move from mommy-professional to workplace-professional. Both had transitioned back into their careers after having children, and they wanted to help other women achieve their own goals. Through their seminars, workshops, and one-to-one private consulting, MYOBMoms helps women with their “re-entry”, whether they want to return to a former career or start a new one. Barri and Pamela explain the tools women need to re-launch themselves—from assessing their career options, developing a resume, and interviewing techniques. They try “to help empower women with the confidence and preparedness they need to accomplish their goals.”
Now MYOBMoms is launching a new venture called WIN-Women Invested In Networking to provide networking opportunities for women to connect with other moms who are exploring career opportunities. Starting May 13, MYOBMoms will host a series of informal networking events. The topic for the first session will be networking strategies–offering helpful networking advice and a chance meet other like-minded moms. A fun and informative way to start, or re-start, your career.
