“New year, new role, and a new addition to the family! In August, I had the immense honor of welcoming my sweet baby boy into the world. As a professional woman, navigating the decision to start a family can be overwhelming, especially with the considerations of 'when' and the potential impact on career advancement. I remember the internal debate about whether to have children before or after a promotion. Ultimately, I decided not to let a professional role dictate the timing of such a personal milestone. Making this choice was difficult, but I knew it was the right decision for me. Reflecting on this journey, I recall my apprehension as I prepared for maternity leave. There was a genuine concern that the momentum I had built over the past years would slow, potentially impacting future opportunities. Thankfully, I work with strong and inspiring leaders who not only supported me during this time but presented me with a promotion while I was on maternity leave. Stories like mine are not typical, however. Unfortunately, many women on maternity leave may not find their manager advocating for them or considering them for promotion during this time. I share my journey with the hope of inspiring other leaders.
