Self-care: Caring for Yourself as a Woman

Challenges to women’s health vary according to age. A working woman can be more productive when she has a better understanding of her physical and psychological challenges, so that she can be more mindful and adopt an effective balance of her work and life. This session focuses on exploring the potential risks to women’s health status at different ages.

Participants will be able to:
• Develop strategies to cope with the challenges for that particular age,
• Remain resilient and achieve a balance of their work and life.

The Pressures of Being a Professional and a Parent

Making the transition to being a parent while remaining committed to your career can be tough. Juggling multiple pressures from your home responsibilities and your work life is never easy, and cultural expectations can make this particularly difficult for women, leading many to believe that having children will make it difficult for them to fulfil their career aspirations.

Participants will be able to:
• Discover a true balance between domestic and professional commitments
• Find harmony in the way between these two very different identities.
