Our mission is to provide women with the support they need to live a fulfilling balanced life. In particular we are here to help women have a successful career at the same time as raising a happy family.
The dream
As working mums we know that if we can get the right balance; if we can juggle our roles without feeling overwhelmed too much of the time; if we can realise our own potential at the same time as we help our children to realise theirs, our lives will be all the more rich and rewarding.
Support needed
Being a working mum can be stressful and exhausting, but it can also be rewarding and fulfilling for mums, and have a positive impact on the whole family. But to achieve this we need support: from our partners, our extended family and crucially, from our employers. We also need to be supportive of ourselves.
Unfortunately for many mums, this support is lacking. There is resistance to the idea of working mums in the media, in the office and sometimes even at home, causing many mums to give up the idea of continuing a career before they’ve even tried. There is also resistance within ourselves – when we allow ourselves to be consumed by feelings of guilt and inadequacy.
Caroline Flanagan Coaching
Our mission at Caroline Flanagan Coaching is to provide women with the support they need to successfully balance their career and family. We aim to do this by:
- Coaching working mums on some of the difficulties they face, such as: deciding what to do at the end of maternity leave; the transition back to work; and how to achieve a good work/life balance; and
- helping employers to recognise and meet the business need of having more women on their staff and in their leadership teams.
