Doris Akalue commented on a post1yGosh! I love it. Who cleaned up afterwards, though? 🤔 Even if biodegradable.Doris Akalue commented on a post1yUnfortunately, it happens often that mothers face challenges when trying to re-enter the workforce after taking a break to raise a family, etc. These “concerns” the employers so flagrantly cite, including the potential employment gaps, lack of recent experience, outdated skills, perceived commitment challenges, networking challenges, etc may all seem like valid “excuses”, (coughs), I mean “reasons” from a business perspective. But I think these are more believably red flags as to the employers’ own failures, gaps and/or shortfalls in their policies, policies which ought to be supportive of it’s employees including but not limited to mothers.Doris Akalue commented on a post1yCongratulations, my friend!

The fact I made it to 60 was partially due to addressing some significant mental health and addiction issues in my early 40s. But it was mostly due to the unflinching love and support I had from friends, family, and especially my life partner of 35 years (and wife of 30 years) Theresa. Whatever successes I've enjoyed in my life I share with her entirely.public_profile__reactions24446 CommentsCopyLinkedInFacebookX
