Do you believe that we as Woman

Do you think that Women can be good wives, good moms, good career woman at the same time?

I like to think so. It's tough but I think it can be done.

No, really, I think it's possible. It takes a lot of dedication, prioritization and hard work, but it can be done.

I'm living proof Chat Icon

Seriously though,I have been inspired by many women (especially in my family) that have gone "above and beyond" so many roles rolled-up into one person. God Bless.

Absolutely. I don't think that it is easy to acheive, but I do think there are some women out there that set great examples.

Re: Do you believe that we as Woman

I read something once...it was compared the various things in life to balls....

money management is a rubber ball
career is a rubber ball
social life is a rubber ball
family is glass...

and that you can try and juggle all four, but when push comes to shove, don't drop the glass, drop one of the rubber ones....

Absolutely and I think second to believing in ourselves is believing in each other.

Is it easy - that's a whole different story but I do believe that it CAN be done! Chat Icon

Good at all three? Yes. Tough but definitely possible. Great at all three? No. I think if you try to be Super Mom, Super Wife, and Super Career Woman, one of the three will suffer.

I think it is possible with a lot of hard work. For me personally, I didn't want to have to choose between my career and my family. I gave up my job because I knew deep down it would have suffered because the time I would need to devote to doing it well would have taken time away from my son and I didn't want to do that.

Re: Do you believe that we as Woman

in general - nope.

are there exceptions? sure...

the reason i say no is because i don't believe the work place currently accommodates and values the working mom.

I think it's possible but I don't think it's easy. I will try to be all 3 - but my priorities will be Good Wife and Good Mother.
