When Your Work Is Unpaid
Ages & Stages: How Women Work & Lead Across Seasons of Life
Thursday, September 17 • 12:30 p.m. MST • FREE
Our culture often ties personal worth to a paycheck. This mindset creates a quiet crisis of identity during unpaid seasons. Whether you are parenting, volunteering, or changing careers, your work still matters. Without a paycheck, we easily question our value and productivity. In this session, we will explore:
How do you separate your personal identity and self-worth from your earnings?
How can you measure the real value of your time, energy, and mind when no market price exists?
How do you spot God's creative work through you in quiet, lonely, or unseen tasks?
Which daily practices help you trust God with your identity when your work is unpaid?

ABOUT THE SERIES
Ages & Stages
HOW WOMEN WORK & LEAD ACROSS SEASONS OF LIFE
Many of us know the pressure of balancing professional ambitions with personal calling. Yet standard workplace advice often misses the real tensions Christian women encounter across different life stages.
Whether you are navigating unpaid labor, leading solo, managing a dual front of family care, or bridging generational divides at work, your calling is a whole-life response to God.
Join Women, Work, & Calling as we host Season 2 of Ages & Stages—a four-part webinar series exploring the challenges and opportunities unique to distinct life seasons. Each webinar features the experiences of women who are living and leading through these seasons.
