Abstract

Rarely explored in the literature, the professional lives of MotherLeaders in mid-career remains virtually unaddressed. The relative silence around both the challenges and career successes faced by academic mothers in leadership roles in the middle of their professional lives is distinct and needs to be given voice. The current chapter will depict some reflections on the highlights and frustrations of one MotherLeader currently navigating through the middle of her career path in academia. Lessons learned and suggestions for maintaining career vibrancy will also be offered.
