A Word from Me:
Hi, I’m Barbara Joyce, mom, wife, and one of LinkedIn’s ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top-Recommended Career Strategists.
As the founder of thrive. career development, I help moms re-enter the workforce with confidence, clarity, and a plan that actually works.
After reviewing thousands of résumés and coaching hundreds of women, I’ve learned this: the problem isn’t that moms lost their value, it’s that the world stopped recognizing it.
This free guide is your first step to reclaiming that value, and remembering just how capable you already are. 💛
💬 “I want to go back to work, but I’ve lost my confidence.”
💬 “My résumé feels outdated, and I don’t even know where to begin.”
💬 “I feel guilty putting myself first again.”
💬 “I just need a plan to get started.”
💬 “I don’t even know where to start updating
LinkedIn.”
You don’t need to have it all figured out; you just need to take the first small step.

💡 In less than 15 minutes a day, this short, empowering resource helps you rebuild confidence and momentum, one small step at a time.
🤎 The mindset shift that instantly quiets self-doubt
