15 EVERDAY PARENT: Wendy Cocke! Have you ever wondered how to successfully work from home with kids around? Strategies that help children experience work positively.

Hello Parents!  If you have ever wanted to find a flexible schedule to work your job from home?  If so, have you stopped because you don't know how to do it with elementary-age children at home?  Listen in to hear what worked for Wendy Cocke.   Wendy Cocke, Author of the #1 bestselling book, “Making Flex Work: Defining Success on Your Own Terms” is the founder of Engineering Leadership solutions and a working mother of two. Prior to starting her business, Wendy spent over 20 years as an engineer in Fortune 500 companies leading global teams. When her oldest child, who is now in middle school, was just an infant, Wendy struggled to find balance. She felt like she was failing at home and at work, so she took matters into her own hands. After 11 months, she was able to convince her company to let her go part time, something that had never been done at the leadership level before. Wendy was told that her career would “stall,” that she was “walking away from everything she had built,” and that “she would never get promoted again,” but she didn’t believe them! She knew there had to be a way to find the balance she and her family desperately needed.  Today, through lived experience and intentional language, Wendy’s children understand that work is something people do to provide for the lifestyle they enjoy, and they work together as a family to seamlessly transition between work and play. I know you will LOVE this episode!  Enjoy and be INSPIRED!  In Gratitude, Dinalynn  CONTACT:  [email protected]   Wendy Cocke http://makingflexwork.com buy on Amazon:  "Making Flex Work: Defining Success on Your Own Terms"
