What does having your dream career mean to you?

Get your answers in my free career journaling workshop happening later today at 8 PM, Singapore time.

Reader, Here's a stat that stopped me in my tracks: 73% of working mothers are planning a career change within the next 12 months.

New role, same feeling that something's missing. What if I told you the women who actually create careers they love aren't just changing jobs - they're changing how they make...
