I was honored to
be featured in a recent Tampa Bay Times article about mom’s going back to the work force. Several of my friends have gone
through this situation of a career transition and how to re-enter the workforce, so it’s near and dear to my heart!
Plus, I’ll be undergoing my own transition into balancing motherhood and career
coach early next year.
In the next few
posts are excerpts from this article… I hope it’s helpful to you.
Problem: Said Buckham, “Some mornings I am lucky to make it out the door without someone else’s fluid on me, whether’s that’s spit, spit-up, snot.”

And these things are worth it. Not only will they make a better impression on your prospective employer, you will feel better and more confident. Purchase things that make you feel great. As my mom always says, dress for the job you want, not the job you have. The money you invest in these items will pay off tenfold.
