I am a B2B & Professional Services Marketing Director by day and a newly wed looking to find my life's balance at night. Growing up a Gen Y'er I am now finding as I approach my late 20's & 30's, that what I wanted for my career and life, is NOT what I want now.
I grew up the overachiever, honor student, sports star, extra-curriculars and never having a free moment. I went through college thinking I wanted to rise up the corporate ladder, become that powerful executive with a corner office and have kids, career, dog, everything. Now more than five years into my career, as I am climbing the ladder, I am feeling less fulfilled then ever.
My journey now is to help myself and other Gen Y'ers, specifically women, beable to find that balance between our work, life, family and community.
