Everywhere There Are Women, There Are Leaders

There was a time in my career when I believed that being a mother would limit my professional advancement...Reconciling my attitudes and beliefs about women, family, and career facilitated my recovery from burnout. I no longer pursue career advancement from a place of shame, fear, or deficit related to my womanhood. In less than two years, I was promoted to the position of chief program officer at my current agency. In this positive work environment, the commitment, dedication, flexibility, and multitasking associated with motherhood, are embraced, not shunned...As a black woman in leadership, I embrace opportunities to mentor, empower, and affirm women, and in particular, women of color.
