MotherScholars’ Perceptions shares how MotherScholars have achieved success, even amidst a global pandemic—both in redefining their identity and in achieving some semblance of the mythical work-family balance. Readers will gain a renewed sense of passion and vigor while practicing and cultivating gratitude as MotherScholars.
MotherScholars (mothers who work as faculty and staff members within higher education) juggle a multitude of roles—leader, researcher, wife, partner, mother, caregiver, advisor, teacher, mentor, volunteer. MotherScholars’ Perceptions, Experiences, and the Impact on Work-Family Balance shares how MotherScholars can achieve a work-family balance, even during the COVID-19 pandemic, and explores if there truly is a right way to go about achieving this balance. It can be a life-long and, at times, delicate journey as MotherScholars try to choose between the (often too) many opportunities they have before them. Despite the challenges, the opportunity to mother and work in so many capacities as a MotherScholar can lead to satisfaction and fulfilling purpose in a meaningful way as MotherScholars cultivate gratitude while seeking work-family balance, even during a pandemic.
