Enough of the mommy wars! Who says you can’t have it both ways? A successful mom, writer, and career strategist shows you how to be a hands-on, primarily-at-home parent, while supplementing your family’s income and keeping your career on track.
This book is for moms (and dads) who have decided to stay at home, work from home, or work part-time while strategizing their future career course. It’s about making cash and supplementing the family income now while keeping an eye on the future. Yes, you can continue your career and still be a hands-on, primarily-at-home mom. Then you can jump right back in without losing ground – if you plan wisely.
According to author Sharon Reed Abboud, there are ways to have your slice of the economic pie and eat it too. In ‘All Moms Work: Short-Term Career Strategies for Long-Term Success’, Abboud gives women the practical advice they need to keep skills, contacts, and resumes fresh; to earn serious money while working primarily from home; and to transition back to professional part-time or full-time employment when they’re ready.
