Episode 39: Pausing for Parenting without Killing Your Career with Lisen Stromberg

Lisen Stromberg, author of Work, Pause, Thrive: How to Pause for Parenthood Without Killing Your Career, debunks the myth that women who “pause” to raise children never return to satisfying careers. She also provides concrete tips on how to plan for and manage your “pause”.

  • The importance of nurturing your career, whether you’re in the paid workforce or not
  • The optimal length for your ”pause”
