Abstract

The current study presents experiences of working mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings suggest working mothers faced obstacles because of the pandemic (e.g., loss of hours and wages, childcare stressors, strained relationships).  Mothers also expressed their desires for future trainings to advance their careers in light of these challenges.
