I've felt the pressure to prove my worth tenfold compared to my male peers, to balance ambition with motherhood in a world that too often asks women to choose only one of the two. This book is my way of challenging that status quo, of giving voice to the untold struggles working mothers face and to further push for the systemic changes we so desperately need. Because it's time we redefine success on our own terms, without apology, without compromise.

THE MOTHER SHIFT is an empowering guide designed for mothers balancing a career and family life. Author Mușata Matei - an ex-banker, tech entrepreneur and mother of two - delves into the unique challenges faced by working mums and offers practical strategies for overcoming them, fostering resilience, and redefining what it means to be successful.

Through a blend of case studies, analysis, memoir and hard-won wisdom, THE MOTHER SHIFT provides the tools and inspiration needed to build resilience, break free from societal expectations, and define a new paradigm of success that resonates with today's dynamic and diverse experiences of motherhood.
