Hi all
I'm a mum to a 3 year old ds and also an employment lawyer. When I returned from mat leave to work I found it quite difficult after being out for a year and had to work hard to build my confidence back up. With hindsight i think I would have benefited from some support or coaching and also meeting others who were facing the same situation as me, juggling part time working etc. Obviously I knew about the flexible working patterns I could request but from speaking to lots of my clients I know that this can be confusing for some mums.
So it got me thinking about running a seminar for mums returning to work dealing with confidence building and common issues faced by mums returning to work ( with a business coach) employment issues that come up and flexible working rights etc ( me) and maybe bringing in something a bit fun but useful like a personal stylist to talk about working wardrobes. It would also be an opportunity for mums to meet other mums too and network.
So can I ask.. do you think this would be useful? If so, when do you think would be best to run it ( assuming the target is mums on mat leave, they will have the child home in the day) so I was thinking the evening but would welcome input. Lastly, would you be prepared to pay and how much? I was thinking between £50-£100 for a 2-3 hour session with a glass of fizz ( if in evening)
What do you think?
Any other input welcomed!!!
Many thanks
