The Lifeline Every Working Mom Needs

The WorkMom philosophy

Revolutionizing working motherhood

There’s a lot of noise out there about how hard it is to juggle career and motherhood—but no one to tell you how to actually do it successfully (without tearing your hair out). At WorkMom, we leverage the principles of organizational development—such as goal setting, change management, and continuous improvement—to cut through the clichés and offer proven strategies that transform your life as a working mom.

The best part? We help you gain clarity on what you want your life to look like. And then we coach you on how to achieve it. 

Our WorkMom philosophy is built on four foundational pillars—called the GROW framework—and the backbone of everything we offer:

  • We start with gaining clarity on the foundation: your vision, values, and identity. Identifying your unique core values—the handful of uncompromising principles most important to you—is the single most effective step to simplify your life, eliminate the unnecessary mental clutter that’s wearing you down, and help you say "no" to energy-draining, time-sucking stressors.

  • Redefining your mindset, essentials, ambition, and obstacles—focusing on what truly matters in your life—empowers you to overcome challenges, align your thinking with your current life season, and pursue your goals with renewed purpose and direction, eliminating distractions and unnecessary burdens.

  • Optimizing your time and calendar, systems, rituals, relationships, and boundaries—creating effective, flexible strategies to manage your workload and family responsibilities—enhances your productivity, reduces stress, and ensures you remain in control. By implementing these strategies, you can navigate daily challenges with greater ease and maintain a balanced life.

  • Measuring your success against your vision, celebrating small wins, and maintaining a big-picture perspective ensures you continuously advance toward your long-term goals. This approach fuels your motivation, sustains your momentum, and helps you leave the legacy you want for your children.

Testimonials

Carolyn, Director @ Inspirato

The Gain Clarity module has been my compass in helping me navigate some big decisions upon my return to work from MAT leave. I have been able to separate the needs/demands of my company from my own needs/values thanks to the GROW framework. This has provided me the confidence and clarity to return excited and motivated because I'm prioritizing MYSELF... and I know doing this will only benefit the company/those I lead, too

Steph, Manager @ Salesforce

Joining The Collective has far exceeded my expectations. I had the absolute LUXURY of going back to work with almost NO issues and I attribute this largely to the confidence and structure I gained from the course and community. I feel like I’m in control of my life. I now know how to structure my to-do list, my calendar, and where to put my energy to bring more fulfillment. As a result, I am 100% present at work and 100% present at home. My mind is working FOR me, not against me. You simply can’t put a price point on these feelings.

Missy, Sr. Program Manager @ Optum

As a mother to three young sons (ages 5 and twin 2 year olds), my life was a whirlwind before joining The Collective. I constantly felt rushed, overwhelmed, and unsure of my purpose. But then I found this community of supportive women, led by Mel, who truly understood my struggles. The encouragement and guidance I received here were transformative, helping me redefine success in my life.

With the support of this group, I confidently proposed a part-time schedule to my boss, aligning with my child’s school hours. I was thrilled when it was approved because I had never heard of anyone else doing this at my company. This change has been life-changing, allowing me to be present for my children while maintaining my professional status.

I now have clarity and peace of mind, excelling both as a mom and in my career. Mel and the WorkMom Collective have shown me that we don’t have to choose between our careers and our families. We can define our own success and thrive in every aspect of our lives.

Angie, Account Manager @ OneIndiana Financial Group

I joined for networking but found a community of incredible women- all here to learn from, connect with and support each other!  Best decision of 2024!

Alison, Human Capital M&A @ Deloitte

The Collective has been a much-needed re-invigoration as I navigate life as a newer working mom & military spouse. As soon as I joined The Collective, I knew I found my “people” of other driven corporate moms to learn with and grow from. Mel has a way of helping to think through the big picture, while also diving into how to optimize for the big picture with practical tips and strategies. To top it off, Mel’s approach is in all ways authentic, organized, thoughtful, caring & FUN! I’ve been able to get closer to (re)defining what a successful career looks like for me, both short and long-term. I’m truly grateful for Mel’s continued support & the growing community!

Harsha, Accounting & Finance Professional

Before working with Mel, I was looking for clarity and control as a mom after constantly feeling overwhelmed and underwater. Mel has provided support and practical advice, helping me navigate my days with greater confidence. I've learned practical strategies for regaining control over my day and staying true to myself, empowering me to make decisions aligned with my values. If you’re considering the Collective, I'd say trust the process and embrace the opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
