The Maternity Leave Guilt
(World News UK)

Ok, so I`ll be the first to admit this... I`m not quite where I wanted to be in my career. Yes, I`ve worked in PR for years for some of the big corporates. Yes, I have set up my own consultancy, which has done pretty well for itself. Heck, I even had a stint by on TV in my formative years as a broadcast journalist. But instead of looking at these achievements with fondness, my glass half-full self can`t help but cling onto the slight disappointment - that I don`t have the automated, self-sufficient business I had hoped for as I head for maternity leave. You see, that`s the downside of projections and plans. Yes it`s good to aim for something. But unless it`s based on evidence, it`s nothing...
