Return to Work Success Stories of 2022

Here at Parents Pivot, we love helping moms successfully reconnect to their careers with strength and clarity. It is an honor and a privilege to get to be a part of their journeys, and in 2022, we celebrated with several moms who successfully returned to paid work after a career break. What a joy it was to share in their milestone moments!

Parent Pivot’s THRIVE Like A Mother job search coaching group helps moms rediscover what fulfills them, grow their self-confidence, build their network, and clarify their direction. As they connect with other talented paused parents, they gain valuable opportunities to explore career choices, define their strengths, learn how to leverage their skills, and get excited for the next chapter in their life.

The women below are just a few of the Parents Pivot clients who either graduated from THRIVE or worked with us 1:1, and who successfully landed a job in 2022 after completing coaching. Join me in congratulating them for their great accomplishment!
