SESSION INFO
Monday, January 30, 2023
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Session Type: Workshop
There is an expectation that women must do it all. Society puts a label on them as being a “superwoman”. There is extra pressure put on women to “do it all” and to be there for everyone who needs them. Women must lead, take care of their households by being a good partner/good mother. One of the biggest myths is that there is a bench mark that women need to aspire. Women need support too due to the many demands and expectations put on them. Learning how to let go and allow others to assist is a skilled that needs to be learned. One of the ways to become happier with work-life balance is knowing when your plate is full and remember that NO is a complete sentence.
