The "Wild World of Working Motherhood" panel was a roaring success yesterday! 💖
Huge thanks to our super-mum host, Georgie Smallwood, and our incredible panelists, Kate Walton, Yan McNamara, Maartje Aleman, and Sarah Hill. Their bravery, honesty and inspiring stories took us on a journey through the triumphs and challenges of juggling motherhood and careers. 😍
Here are some powerful takeaways for working mothers and parents alike:
✨ Prioritise self-care: Kindness to yourself is crucial for success.
✨ Boundaries are your friend: Learn to say "no" and establish clear lines between work and personal life.
✨ Embrace organisation: Time management is key. Get organised and use your time wisely.
✨ Build your support network: Find a partner who gets it, be it a spouse, friend, or fellow parent.
✨ Surround yourself with empathy: Connect with people who understand the juggling act.
✨ Open communication is key: Communicate your needs with your work team.
✨ Me-time matters: Don't forget to carve out time for yourself to recharge.
✨ Empower your children: Foster their independence to lighten your load.
✨ Celebrate all victories: Big or small, acknowledge your achievements.
The sense of community and shared experiences was truly inspiring! We're excited to build on this momentum and offer ongoing support for our teams across Moonpig, Greetz, Buyagift and Red Letter Days. Mums, dads, and everyone in between - your participation made this event so so special. 💓
A heartfelt thank you to Georgie and the panelists for sharing their wisdom! 💟
