Women and Work
The workplace can feel very different for women than for men. Women often feel they have to prove themselves, that they’re evaluated by how they look, or that their opinions are not respected. They feel Mom Guilt for leaving their kids while they pursue a career and worry about taking a job that fuels their passion instead of their pocketbook. We examine these real life challenges of women who are climbing the corporate ladder, growing their own business, and navigating the complex juggle of work and family. We explore how women like you can make work fit your life, not the other way around.

Women and Work: Suzy Carbrey
She thought she had found her calling as a speech-language pathologist.
But the reality was long hours, holidays away from family, and endless pressure from insurance rules.
Then came burnout.
Suzy Carbrey had always been entrepreneurial. So she started building a private practice on the side. The very same day she finalized her business, Illinois shut down for Covid.
What looked like disaster turned into opportunity.
Her medical job slowed down. Patients stopped coming. And in that space, Suzy built something new.
She launched a tele-practice, helping adults with ADHD who suddenly found themselves struggling to work from home.
No coworkers. No structure. No accountability. And for many, no idea how to stay focused.
Suzy became their coach.
Not just teaching skills, but helping them design systems and strategies that fit their brains. She knew how — because she had lived it.
Her own challenges with executive functioning became her strength.
Her story is proof that your biggest struggle can become the foundation of your greatest impact.
Today, Suzy is thriving. She works from home, creates her own schedule, and most importantly — has balance with her family.
This is the story of burnout turned breakthrough. This is the story of how Suzy Carbrey built freedom on her own terms
