Today on the podcast we are talking about relaunching your career whether after a pause to stay at home with kids or take care of a family member or a shift into a new industry altogether.
Our own parents so commonly worked a single career their entire lives. The current reality is that people will hold around 12 jobs in their lifetime, but the current workforce is expected to change careers entirely 3-7 times over the course of their working llfe. This means that whether you are starting from a break or shifting directions, a career relaunch is likely in your future.
Our guest Heather Black created the Supermums Programme. With a background in training and employability support alongside Salesforce, she designed the perfect programme to help women with this relaunch. Since November 2016, she has welcomed over 1000+ trainees (mums and a couple of dads), from 10+ different countries to the Supermums family.
Her mission is to grow the programme to empower more mums, to forge a career within the Salesforce sector and beyond.
I am excited to introduce you to Heather!

About Our Guest: Heather Black
Our founder, Heather Black is a mum of two gorgeous girls. Over the years she’s worked flexibly with Salesforce, even from a camper van in Australia. So when her eldest daughter was born, Heather continued to work flexibly around her family. Then, back in 2016 when her second daughter arrived Heather began to think about how Salesforce enabled her to stay working. Heather realised that Salesforce is an enabler to flexibility. The lightbulb moment happened, and Heather created the Supermums Programme. With a background in training and employability support alongside Salesforce she designed the perfect programme. Since November 2016, we’ve welcomed over 1000+ trainees (mums and a couple of dads), from 10+ different countries to the Supermums family. Our mission is to grow the programme to empower more mums, to forge a career within the Salesforce sector.
