Lead Like a Mother

Event update: Our October panel will now take place in Spring 2025. Watch for more details soon!

A Mother of all Mothers. A strident advocate for human rights. Grace through unimaginable grief. Rest in peace Ethel Kennedy.

Kids. New role at work. Family drama. Work drama. Aging parents. Sometimes it’s an uphill climb, sometimes you can coast downhill for a bit. Other times, you’ve got to come to a full stop before hitting the gas again. At our upcoming Charlotte event, our all-star panel will speak to shifts they’ve made throughout their careers – some graceful. Others – well, less so. You’ll appreciate their candor, and benefit from their wisdom as they share their personal journeys. RSVP here: https://lnkd.in/g3rF6kr8 broadhead.

Where there is no path, women are creating their own. "Women-owned businesses are having an undeniable impact on the U.S. economy, with women owning more than 14 million businesses, employing nearly 12.2 million people and generating $2.7 trillion in revenue." https://lnkd.in/gSkS_KEC

To our Portland mother-leaders — We heard from many of you that between back-to-school, fall sports and everything else that September brings, it's a chaotic season for your own extracurriculars. So, we're listening — and postponing our 9/19 event until springtime. If you purchased tickets, they'll be refunded through Eventbrite. Stay tuned for future event updates!

Control freak-alert: Not everything is fixable. Changeable. Controllable. That’s the bad news when facing volatility at work. Now for the GOOD news — managing the stress that comes with change (aka reality), IS within our control. For the full how-to, or at least some proven techniques, join our fall panel chat at broadhead.'s Portland office! You’ll hear how other business-leader-mothers have learned to steady-on, remaining (mostly) stress-free through wave after wave of change. Register here: https://lnkd.in/ggjpzWxh? Meet the panelists: Dionne Del Carlo Megan Caldwell Danielle Pak Nicole Elovitz, MBA

Thanks to everyone who joined us for last night's event in Minneapolis! If Lynne, Tali, Yasameen and Amber's pearls of wisdom helped you leave feeling lighter than when you arrived, our mission was accomplished. A few quotes that felt particularly poignant: "There's so much to learn when you're the one without answers." "Resilience will help you overcome anything, whether it's an unfamiliar situation or a personal challenge." "Have grace with yourself because we're all just learning every day." "Just be a human. Approach every situation with vulnerability." "The worst career advice? 'You probably need to leave to grow.' Growth is not always up."

The theme of this month's panel "It's just a phase. And phases fizzle." (Thank God). #leadlikeamother https://lnkd.in/gFBpYbWu
