Mother Honestly - The Global Community Supporting Women In Work & Motherhood - Hosting The Start To Flourish Summit In NYC
Join MH on November 4th, 2022 for enlightening panel discussions and lively networking sessions designed to help women flourish
NEW YORK, Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Mother Honestly invites parents, employee caregivers, and caring workplace leaders to attend its fourth annual summit, Start to Flourish, in New York on November 4th, 2022. It marks the first large-scale in-person summit hosted by Mother Honestly since 2019 and will focus on building hope and forward movement as we together navigate the fast-changing landscape of home, work, and society.
Despite the many epiphanies and the robust conversations surrounding the experience of mothers at home and at work, women continue to bear the brunt of a society ill-equipped to support families. The challenges are mounting – childcare costs continue to skyrocket, women continue to shoulder a disproportionate share of domestic duties, and too few employers are making the necessary commitment to enable caregivers to flourish at work. These merely represent the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the hurdles women regularly face.
Mother Honestly Founder and CEO Blessing Adesyian nonetheless sees reason for hope and optimism.
"I'm the mother of four and between caring for my household, my aging parent, and my career I regularly feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff, which I might fall from at any moment. This life that I truly love - I've worked so hard for both my precious family and my rewarding career - is hard. That's why I'm so excited about Start to Flourish because I believe there is a productive and fulfilling way forward," says Blessing. "Our goal is to usher in a world where mothers and other caregivers are supported and feel the confidence to have the hard conversations needed to effect real change. We believe that by bringing key stakeholders together in a meaningful way we can launch ideas, programs, and habits that will ensure mothers are able to flourish both at work and at home."
