STEM Mom Monthly Webinars

For STEM and A-Type Leaders Ready to Have It All: Career Excellence, Family Happiness, Thriving Health, and Unshakeable Wealth

You've already proven yourself. The degree is on the wall. The promotions speak for themselves. You're engineering solutions, managing teams, and building the future...

But here's what nobody tells you about success as a STEM professional and mother: the technical skills that got you here aren't the same skills that will sustain you there.

You're navigating uncharted territory. Leading projects while leading a family. Making million-dollar decisions while making school lunches. Innovating in boardrooms while innovating bedtime routines.

You need a space that honors both your analytical mind and your integrated life. A community that gets the complexity of what you're building... not just at work, but as a whole human.

"I wanted to send a quick note coming out of today’s webinar and express my gratitude for making this content available. I’ve attended so many webinars over my career and I can say this was one of my most valued. I look forward to reviewing my notes and leveraging the resources made available to make some changes!"

"Finally, conversations that match the sophistication of my work life with the reality of my whole life."

The STEM Mom Monthly Webinars aren't another networking event or generic professional development session.

This is where your technical expertise meets work-life integration mastery. Where you connect with other women who understand that excellence doesn't pause for pickup time.

Each month, we dive deep into the skills that matter most when you're operating at the highest levels of both professional and personal life, with our speakers:

Megan Sutton, P.Eng.

Amanda Robertson, P.Eng.

Melissa Kober Meier, P.Eng.

Kirsten Eeuwes, P.Eng.

Jen Harkleroad, P.Eng.

In these sessions, we're talking about asset management when your biggest asset is your time and energy. Networking strategies that work around school schedules. The leadership learning curve when you're already expected to know everything.

You'll hear perspectives on flexible schedules from senior leadership who've actually walked this path. Real talk about hiring help. Financial planning that accounts for both career trajectory and family goals.

SAVE THE DATE

These sessions focus on integration, not balance. Balance assumes you're choosing between two competing priorities.

We focus on building a life where your professional excellence and personal fulfillment amplify each other.

You're already engineering a better world through innovative business ideas. Now let's engineer a better approach to how you show up in that world.

Melissa, P. Engineer

"Even with the pandemic on, 2020 was the first year I had fulfilled PD hours requirements since starting my family in 2017. Pros&Babes was a huge part of that. Thank you!"

Sarah, P. Engineer

“Before joining Pros&Babes, I was spending a lot of time online, comparing myself to others, bringing a lot of anxiety and negativity into my life. I've completely cut that out. I'm now a lot more intentional with my time. Through the program, I’m investing in my personal growth while creating a road map for me and my family towards our vision.”

Brittany, P. Engineer

“I feel like my maternity leave has been spent a lot more productively. Through the Pros&Babes training, I’ve been able to be in control of my emotions, my time and the whole mat leave transition instead of just reacting to the whims of my child. It has been really freeing and empowering.”

Kirsten, P. Engineer

“Ever since my first clarity session with Kinia, I’ve gained tons of confidence about my leadership skills. And confidence is what got me to seek and earn a promotion right after my mat leave. I am so grateful to this community for helping me plant the seeds of my success.”

Here’s what APEGA (Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta) workshop participants are saying:

"I think this topic needs more attention than ever. Women/parents are still struggling in the workplace and will continue to until there is some true equality. Some company are making big strides with encouraging paternity leave for everyone."

"Thank you very much for putting together this inclusive topic to demonstrate that this is something of interest to APEGA."

"The workbook was really great. I wish more seminars offered them, so we can continue to learn after the event is over."

"Should be offered minimum yearly with Kinia.“

Why Should You Participate?

43% of women and 23% of men leave full-time STEM employment after having kids, often citing a work culture hostile to family life.

Only 20% of mothers feel confident returning to work after mat leave, and 40% of them feel so unsupported they think of quitting. With every child a woman has, a wage gap is created and widens. Mothers are rated as less hireable, less suitable for promotion and management training, and deserving of lower salaries because they are believed to be less competent and less committed to paid work.

Thankfully, competence and commitment can partially help tackle this problem. Pros&Babes provides a solid foundation for moms to start mitigating the “motherhood penalty” through unique, professional and personal development programs for moms on maternity leave and working moms, so they can feel less alone, more prepared to go back to work, negotiate, protect their careers, build their networks, and succeed instead of being stifled. Moms finish the courses feeling so much more confident about integrating their family and professional lives.

Pros&Babes has helped mothers and their leaders in the following organizations:

"In a world of leadership programs, Pros&Babes focuses on how we bring our professional and personal worlds together. It allows women with caregiving duties to reach their leadership potential.

This is a priority because we have unique perspectives and skills as a result of being caregivers. The return on investment is most apparent in a female leader's ability to lead and grow individuals on their teams, which in turn grows an organization."
