Every year, this report reminds us that progress isn’t inevitable. It’s intentional. And right now, corporate America is losing focus.

The truth is simple: women aren’t falling behind because they lack ambition. They’re falling behind because support systems that should exist aren’t there — sponsorship, clear advancement paths, unbiased promotion processes, and leadership that actually walks the talk.

If companies want to win in 2026, they need to recommit to doing the real work. Women aren’t the problem. The structures are.

If you’ve been blaming yourself for a job search that feels impossible, stop. You’re fighting a system that was never designed with caregivers in mind.

I joined .carnahan on her incredible podcast, When Mommy Grows Up, to talk about the messy reality behind hiring algorithms, why amazing candidates get filtered out, and the kinds of companies parents should actually be targeting.

This is not a pep talk. It’s a blueprint for navigating a flawed system with clarity and power.

Episode is up. Go listen.

When “I don’t know what I want” keeps coming up, it’s often because you’ve had zero space to think — not because you’re lost.

This isn’t a clarity problem.
It’s a bandwidth problem.
When you’ve been carrying a lot, it’s hard to hear your own direction.

You’re not lost.
You’re just overdue for breathing room.

And the second you create actual space — the real you comes back fast.

That’s why I built MomUp Studio.
To help you figure out what’s next without overthinking it, spiraling, or spending months guessing.

If this hit, you’re exactly who I built it for.

Stop treating your potential like it needs approval. No one is coming to hand you the green light. If you know the next step, take it.

Sometimes the right match changes everything.
Marcy didn’t need ten interviews or a “perfect” resume. She needed a company that valued her skills and a role that finally aligned with her life.

This is why we do what we do.
Not to fill seats.
Not to send resumes into the void.
But to connect talented job seekers with teams who actually see them.

If you’re looking for that kind of role or want a partner who recruits differently, you’re in the right place.

Imagine a team where each member is recognized for their unique strengths and motivators, where communication flows freely, and where everyone is aligned towards a common goal.

Watch MomUp Coach, Zandra Montes, lead this enlightening session to help you discover the secrets to unlocking better working relationships, boosting team morale, and achieving collective success.
