Do you feel overwhelmed trying to have a fruitful career while also attempting to spend quality time with your family? Do you feel like your career trajectory has changed since you had kids? Do you feel like your brand as a "go-getter" has taken a hit? Have you become increasingly aware of unconscious bias and how it affects women's careers? Have you heard that women who have children are not only paid less than men, they are also paid less than women without children?!?!?

Overcome these fears and beat the statistics!

In this webinar, Suz O'Donnell will share how to avoid the three most common career mistakes professional women make when balancing a family. It's up to YOU to take the bull by the horns to drive the factors that are in your control and influence the factors that seem to be outside of your control. She will:

- Articulate the top three mistakes professional women make when balancing a family that prevent them from getting what they want out of their career.

- Distinguish which risk factors are under your control and how you can influence the risk factors that seem to be out of your control.

You will leave the webinar with a three-step plan to ensure you get what you want out of your life and career.

Note: If you don't have children yet but are planning for them in the future, register for the August 24th webinar "Avoid the Top Three Career Mistakes Professional Women Make When PLANNING a Family."
