Motherhood & Business: What Happens When the System Doesn’t Work for Women.

Why do so many women leave work after maternity leave? And what can we do to change that?

Join us this October for a powerful panel conversation on motherhood, ambition, and the systems that still don’t support working women.

We’ll be bringing together a group of thought-provoking speakers — from founders, CEOs and leaders — to explore what happens when women return to work after having children, and why so many are forced to choose between their careers and their families.

This isn’t just another panel event. It’s a space for honest conversation, shared experiences, and practical ideas. Whether you are in or out of work, a people leader, founder, or simply passionate about equity in the workplace — you're invited.

We'll be covering:

• The realities of returning to work after maternity leave
• Redefining ambition, leadership, and “having it all”
• What real change looks like with practical tips from the experts
