To keep my mind engaged during maternity leave, I started a blog related to my professional interests. This platform wasn't just a creative outlet; it allowed me to stay in the loop within my industry, share my insights, and gradually build an audience. My blog caught the attention of key influencers and opened the door to speaking engagements, consultancy roles, and even a book deal. It was an unintended, yet rewarding, pathway to significant career growth.
