We're posting this survey on behalf of the researcher:
Deadlines to Dinner Time - Finding Your Balance: A Quick Survey for Mums Over 40
Are you a working mum aged 38–55, juggling a demanding career, household chaos, and the endless mental load—only to feel like you’re dropping the ball at home?
You’re not alone. So many of us excel at leading teams, hitting deadlines, and solving problems at work, yet walk through the front door and feel like we’re constantly reacting—snapping at the kids, miscommunicating with our partners, or just feeling guilty for not being “present enough.”
What if you could bring the same clarity, confidence, and leadership to your family life?
I’m exploring how better listening—a skill we use every day at work—can transform the way we connect with our families. Not just hearing, but really listening: the kind that rebuilds trust, reduces conflict, prevents burn-out and helps everyone feel heard.
Why does this matter?
- Less chaos, more connection: Practical tools to cut through the noise and foster cooperation (yes, even with teens!).
- Lead at home like you do at work: Use your professional strengths to create a calmer, more respectful dynamic.
- Ditch the mum guilt: When you trust yourself, your family will too.
I’d love your input! If you’re a start-up entrepreneur, corporate professional or creative freelancer with school-age or teenage kids, please take this
