TOPIC: The Success Shift: Your Career, Your Motherhood, Your Way

Speakers:
Ilana B. Ressler, MDReproductive Endocrinologist & Infertility Specialist, Illume Fertility,

and Elona ShapeMarket Retail Leader, CT & MA, KeyBank

Facilitated by Penny GoffmanHost & Community Connector & Founder, THATPENNY | CONNECT, with local powerhouse speakers, Q&A to follow

Calling all women who want to redefine success – this is the POWERChat for you! Ditch the ‘either/or’ myth and join other ambitious women, mothers and mothers to be who are ready to stop compromising and start designing their own success. We move beyond traditional metrics to explore what success actually looks like as your definitions evolve through different chapters of life. Motherhood doesn’t dilute your drive; it often refines it, shifting focus toward presence, purpose, and professional impact that honors your family’s changing needs. Taking a proactive approach to financial and family planning can build a high-impact support system. We’ll explore the intersection of motherhood, family planning, financial abundance, and professional ambition. You’ll unpack your personal values, and walk away with a roadmap where your career and personal priorities don’t just coexist, they thrive together.
