Description
FROM BOARDROOM TO BABY provides emotional encouragement and practical guidance for career women who are opting out of the workforce to stay home with their children. A recent Gallup poll concluded that stay-at-home mums were significantly less likely than working mums to consider their lives "thriving" and experienced higher rates of depression. Even so, millions of mothers are choosing to put their careers on hold and stay home with their children. FROM BOARDROOM TO BABY shatters the stereotypes associated with "staying home" and empowers new moms to blaze their own unique paths through motherhood and beyond. Along with a thoughtful map and modern-day tools to help moms carve out meaning and purpose in their new roles, FROM BOARDROOM TO BABY offers: *Heartfelt stories of the author's own journey from a Fortune 500 company to life on the home front. *Mindful exercises that prompt soul searching and self-discovery. *Expert advice from a mental health counsellor. *Meaningful affirmations that promote grace and strength throughout motherhood.
Reviews
"When we transition from working full time outside of the home to working full time inside the home, it can be quite the adjustment! Kristin Helms knows that transition and has spent her motherhood years, not only seeking balance and joy for herself, but gaining great insights for all moms making the transition from career to home. From Boardroom to Baby is a great way to reflect on the impact we have as moms and the fulfillment we have to gain in this season of life."--Jaimi Erickson, owner and writer at The Stay-at-Home Mom Survival Guide
