It all started when…
Kim and Pam were colleagues in the career services team at Chicago Booth. Kim worked primarily with part-time students, executive MBAs, and alumni. Pam worked mostly with full-time students.
We both left Chicago Booth, pursued other roles in industry and higher ed (teaching), got our doctorates to think more deeply about career and organizational matters, and eventually started our own firms.
In this journey, we faced our own prioritization challenges as our families grew (Kim has 2 daughters, Pam has twin sons). As professional women and working parents, we faced the same challenges so many women do - what to do when, what to plan for, what to say “no” to, how to generate more positive self-talk, and ways to continue focusing on our professional goals.
We met for lunch one day and talked about our upcoming yearly priorities. We discovered we cared deeply about helping women take time to focus on themselves - to take time to think about what matters and how to take action.
…we decided we HAD to work together and then, we created PRIORITIZE YOU
