There is an interesting trend that has been taking place. Ten to fifteen years ago women were pushing ahead with their career and their children were worked into the equation. It became a tough juggling act to provide the best for their child; but on the career side, they had worked to hard to get where they are and didn't want to jeopardize their position.
Today women are making different choices with their careers. They have decided to take a hiatus from their careers or reinvent their career for the sake of their children.
This show was an example of two women who were burned out from their careers, and wanted to do something different. They also wanted to spend more dedicated time with their children.
By creating something new -- they also provided two cool companies that give moms an opportunity. Catherine Clifford with YourOnRamp.com created a website and company for all the talented moms out there that had been taking a hiatus from their job and are now looking to get back in the career game, but on a more flexible schedule. This company provides the answer. It also helps moms create a better "off ramp" so that when they are ready to go back they will have done all the right things to make it easier.
Then Barbara Jones started One2One Network, where moms can learn about new products and services and have fun, while doing it. She is providing research to companies about what moms like and don't like and moms get to share their opinions.
It becomes a win, win for everyone as children are playing a role in their moms career choices.
