Zoom 3 Virtual

In this free 4-part class working mom's will learn to take back control of their life, family and career!

  • Are you a working mom who gets it all done, but barely keeping her head above water, thinking there must be a better way?
  • Do you struggle to find joy in your day and time for yourself, once you’ve taken care of everyone else’s needs—your boss, your kids, even your house?
  • Do you see other moms and think “she’s got it all together” – and wish you knew her secret?

Then check out our workshop:
Maximize Potential as a Working Mom
4 sessions over 4 weeks
April 16, 23, 30 (virtual) and May 7th (in person)
7 PM- 8 PM EST

Let’s take control of your life, family and career! We will provide tips and tools that you can take-away and implement that day to support your life, career ambitions and you connect with your kids and your community in the way you want in this series.

We will cover:
Session 1, April 16, 7p.m. (zoom)
We start with an internal exploration, to ensure you are clear on what’s important to you. Why does this matter? Not only will this help you make decisions quick and painlessly, it will make it asking for the support you need easier.


Session 2, April 23, 7 p.m. (zoom)
The next step is an external exploration. We start by taking an audit of your resources, and then brainstorm how they can better work for you to create the life you want. We think creatively and share best practices to make sure you are thriving!


Session 3, April 30, 7 p.m. (zoom)
In this session we pull all of the tools together to support you in creating your own model of success at both work and at home. We will break down those ideas that aren’t working for you anyway and build a version that works for you, leaving you feeling full of joy and in the drivers seat.


Session 4, May 7, 7 p.m. (in person)
This last session is a chance to ask questions, give feedback on what’s working (and what’s not), and build a community of accountability partners. This is great chance to cement the learnings to make real and lasting change.

*Space is limited, registration is required.  You will be registered for all sessions. If there is a particular session you're unable to make you can email adultprograms@montclairlibrary.org.
