Hi everyone, need your suggestions on something.
I was recently talking to my mom, who's currently a housewife. She's been a working woman till her late 20s and then left her job because of my birth.
Later, when I reached my teens, she tried resuming her career but couldn't succeed becaus companies won't take someone with such a huge career break. She also tried starting something of her own but didn't work out because of the nature of the business. So she's been at home for a very long time.
Now, I am a working man myself and usually not at home because of tight work schedules. My mother gets a lot of time at home and has been wanting to do something but is unable to get a direction. What are some of the things she can do to keep herself busy/ restart her career?
Some things that I could think of were:
Also, is anyone aware of any part-time job portals for women with career breaks?
Please drop your suggestions below.
I would why don't try content creation... it's trending..best time to do so.. She can create content around anything she likes...how to manage house.. cooking...any dyi crafts ..or anything there is no limit... Other thing could be reselling...many platforms are doing so...
If not business then she can try some health and wellness things ...like attending some meditation/yoga classes ... practicing something like acupuncture or color therapy (if interested) ..
My mother is currently taking online classes/lessons pertaining to religion texts, langauge..
First point is always a yes, irrespective of whether she finds a job or not. On keeping herself busy while also earning, there are multiple opportunities specifically aimed at getting people who have taken a break back into the job market. 2 that I know of - Makemytrip (gives you customer leads who enquire on their website and you get paid if you convert that customer) and FlexiBees (specifically targeted at women who have taken a career break and now want to get back with a 4-5 hour work day categorised based on skills like marketing, finance, tech, etc.). And the best is of course stock market trading 😊
