Re: Career Woman or Homemaker ?
Mama - some of my friends went to school and started their MBAs or got their PMP certification. Or something like a Java Certification and after 3 years at home got an salary ABOVE what she was making.
It was clearly not easy taking care of a child and studying but it was worth it in the end.
Another friend started up a small business from home - registered her company. I'll be honest she did barely any work but she was able to justify the GAP to an employer.
I encourage women to aim high after a GAP because I see many wonderful examples around me. It takes some strategic thinking and planning.
It takes years to get promoted. Why settle?
