As I’m still working on the question of balance, I have to say it is a continuous challenge but still I´m satisfied with everything. It was the best decision I took in my professional life: to become a working mom. As a mom, I really would like to be considered as an option and be asked about this or that new challenge. There’s this feeling at work that kids could interfere with a mom’s performance and as a working mom I feel the necessity to show the same commitment I’ve always had for my job. Besides pushing to give my best performance at work, I’ve got the added challenge of finding the balance between the need to continue to grow in my career and be a good and present mother at home. For a long time people assumed that we couldn’t accept certain activities just because we’re mothers and that is not always correct.
