Wednesday’s guest, Nancy Collamer, is a career counselor and founder of www.JobsandMoms.com, a website for professional-level women looking for jobs after being a stay-at-home mom. Is that you ? Well, if it is Nancy had lots of information for you. Or maybe you are just thinking about your future choices, in which case Nancy had information that had to make you feel hopeful about what lies ahead of you. Are you a bit unsure of yourself and afraid that after staying home you can’t cut it in work place? Well, Nancy assured us that you aren’t alone. Feeling insecure is something most moms experience (regardless of their background) and boy did that feel good to hear!
Nancy also has a wonderful Back to Work Toolkit: A Guide for Come BackMoms, which you can access on her website I hope you had a chance to listen and learn what she had to say. Great information. Go to her website to get some very helpful tips on everything you need to know - and more.
