Hi Anna! As a tech Project Manager in the IT industry, I juggle both office work and household chores daily. It can feel quite challenging in the beginning when you're taking on so many responsibilities. But trust me, we women are incredibly capable and resilient! If you're truly focused on your career, nothing can hold you back.
Before long, managing all these tasks will become second nature to you, and it might even feel odd if you don't get to do them. It may seem daunting now, but once you dive in and embrace the rewarding experience, you'll likely never want to leave.
Stay focused, embrace the journey, and remember - you've got this! Wishing you all the best and success in your endeavors, Anna. You're going to do amazing things!

Hello,
I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work in EFAP as well as have an independent practice. As of now I am focused on clinical work, via teleheath services. For EFAP, I provided short term counseling services, which are typically limited 1-2goal based work with a client. Depending on their need and our scope of practice, I will determine if I can provide service (e.g. someone who I'd active suicide or homicide or active domestic violence I would have to refer them to a higher level of care). EFAP services is best used for high functioning individual.
As an independent provider, it is more long-term and I can work with more intensive care such as post trauma, however I still have limitations such as as the same I mentioned. This work has more sessions, yet depending on the client financial pay and if they choose to believe they need any more service.
Mental health work is the good, bad, and ugly. Its rewarding! I enjoy what I do.
Now, a caveat for me, I have a PhD. In Counseling Education and Supervision, so I am trained trash, supervise and do research. I do plan to go into those areas at some point. I love the versatility of my career thst it's forever evolving and I can find something to do with my degree, contrary to popular belief about those with liberal arts degrees!
Hope this helps!

Hey Anna! I'm happy to share my experience as a product manager for a fintech company.
In this role, my days vary, as I get to juggle my time between developers, designers, and stakeholders.
But if I had to outline a typical day it generally consists of meetings, research, and documentation.
At the core of being a product manager, I connect with stakeholders, delving into their experiences and discovering ways to enhance their interaction with our product. This means I get to tackle diverse challenges, identify the core issues, and devise innovative solutions which I then collaborate on with my team of designers and developers.
What I love about being in this career is that I not only get to leverage my creative side but also get to back that creative side with data and research.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or want more insights!
