Return to Work with Confidence: A faith-based guide to help stay-at-home moms re-enter the workforce Kindle Edition

She's Back...and better than ever!

A woman does not stop learning, growing, and developing when she's home raising children. Nor does her pre-mom knowledge and experience evaporate when she makes that choice. So time spent out of the workforce shouldn't count against her if she wants or needs to return. In fact, the messiness of life that happens while away from traditional employment often catalyzes growth in unexpected ways. Once identified and appreciated, the skills and evolved interests gained during a supposed career "pause" can become the qualifications needed to re-enter the workforce with confidence and a new sense of purpose.

In this workbook, Shelley Hunter, a 20+ year work-at-home mom and host of the Faithful Career Moves podcast, shares her journey back to work and how she's helped other moms do the same. But be assured, this is not a book promoting a working mom lifestyle or any particular type of parenting. Whether to work (or not) is for you and your family alone to decide. But if you do feel inspired to return to the workforce, this book will help.

The techniques described are similar to the steps detailed in any career book or website. But covering the "gap" stay-at-home moms have on their resumes requires creativity (and confidence building!) that is generally not found in mainstream career resources. The tools in this book include the following:

  • Personal inventory to identify your unique gifts and abilities
  • Tips on how to write a resume that covers an employment gap
  • Lessons on how to set up and effectively use LinkedIn
  • Networking strategies to find the best jobs
  • Interview questions stay-at-home moms are most likely to face

So if you're nervous about your abilities, think you have "no skills," feel like your credentials are outdated, or have no idea where to start, this book will help you partner with God in rebooting your career. As you go through the material, you will discover He has a plan for you, you are where He knew you would be at this point in your life, and He can help you find meaningful employment that will bless you, your family, and those you will eventually serve in your expanded sphere of influence.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Shelley Hunter, a 20+ year work-at-home mom and host of the Faithful Career Moves podcast, left an 11-year career as a FinTech programmer to be unapologetically home with her kids. She returned to full-time employment (working from home) 13 years later by being flexible, networking, working freelance, and proving herself over and over again.

In her book, "Return to Work with Confidence," Hunter shares her journey back to the workforce and how other moms can do the same by understanding their strengths and partnering with a higher power.

Though the career advice in this book and on her website (FaithfulCareerMoves.com) can apply to anyone, Hunter specifically addresses the unique circumstances of Christan stay-at-home moms (SAHM) who want or need to return to the workforce. You don't have to be religious or share her faith to find value here. But having lived with the gospel of Jesus Christ in her life and without, she knows the difference that divine direction can make in all things, including something as important as a career.
