Many professional women are juggling more than a career. They’re managing households, raising children, supporting aging parents, contributing to their communities, and showing up every day with commitment and care. This season of life—often referred to as the sandwich generation—can be deeply meaningful, but it can also feel overwhelming.

That’s why we’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Women in Business event: We Are the Sandwich Generation—an encouraging, conversation-driven evening designed to support women navigating these layered roles with intention, clarity, and confidence.

A Conversation That Reflects Real Life
This gathering centers on the realities many women face every day: balancing professional responsibilities while caring for children, aging parents, partners, and households—often all at once. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, this event creates space for honest conversation, shared experiences, and practical strategies that actually work in real life.

Whether you are deeply immersed in this season or preparing for what lies ahead, you’ll find reassurance and practical guidance from others who understand the balancing act—and are committed to thriving, not just surviving.

Featuring Presenter Kim Jenney

We are thrilled to welcome Kim Jenney as our presenter for the evening. Kim will lead a thoughtful, engaging discussion inspired by the themes of We Are the Sandwich Generation, guiding participants through practical, real-life approaches to managing responsibilities with less stress and more intention.

Kim’s facilitation style invites reflection, discussion, and connection—helping attendees walk away with insights they can immediately apply at work, at home, and in their relationships.

What We’ll Explore Together
Inspired by the book and grounded in lived experience, this Women in Business conversation will explore:

  • Effective strategies for enjoying this season of life
  • Communicating sensitively with loved ones across generations
  • Letting go of guilt and unrealistic expectations
  • Making family life and work life more fulfilling
  • Sharing obligations more evenly at home and beyond
  • Protecting your mental and emotional well-being
  • Planning wisely and proactively for the future
  • This is not about doing more—it’s about doing what matters most, with greater intention and support.

Thoughtful Details That Make the Evening Special
Your event ticket includes a physical copy of the book, giving you the opportunity to continue reflecting long after the conversation ends.

We’re also excited to enjoy sandwiches and charcuterie catered by Tina Cass, creating a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that encourages connection, conversation, and community.

It’s an evening designed for meaningful dialogue—without the pressure to perform or have everything figured out.
