Calling all Moms...

Working or not.  If you are interested in being interviewed on your views about being a working mom.

I am looking for a minimum of 10 women to interview as part of a series on being a working mom (or not).  Please email me your interest to theoryofaworkingmom@gmail.com.

In particular, I will be looking for a mix of women who:

1)  Elect to work although have the means to stay at home.
2)  Have to work because they don't have the means to stay at home (and wish they could).
3)  Elect to stay at home.
4)  Are self employed to work from home.

Although I suspect my connections will provide me with women from Canada and Singapore, I would like this to be as geographically, culturally and economically diverse as possible.

In addition, I'd love to have a mix of industries from social care (health, education, etc.) to business professionals to technicians.

Looking forward to sharing the stories of the women who struggle with balancing home and work, finance and family, self fulfilment, guilt and hope.

  1. Great blog, Michelle! I hear your pain and have lived it. Started my business 12 years ago as a way to deal with the "Working Mother" thing and since then have hired a number of others struggling with the same challenges!

    1. Thanks Emma - so great to hear from you! I am struggling to figure out what makes me tick, especially since I have been thrown into a situation where all possibilities are in front of me. Know just to make a decision and more forward :). I will be in touch :)
