Power Your Future
As the latest example of How Good Grows on Yahoo!, we’re launching the Power Your Future program where we are highlighting stories of real women, both everyday and top leaders, who have found success in work and in life.
As part of this series, we are excited to announce that we are partnering with Fortune’s Most Powerful Women. Some of the country’s most successful female executives will be sharing with our audience insights and advice about everything from finding a mentor to thriving (not just surviving!) as a working mom. We’ll add content—news, stories, pictures, videos—daily.
Join us in kicking off the program by adding your experiences to the conversation. In one of our first videos, Gina Drosos, the head of Procter & Gamble’s beauty division, discusses how she keeps balance between her work life and her personal life.
What extreme choices have you made to keep your work-life balance intact?
We’re just getting started, so keep checking back to see examples of other women finding success in their lives and to share your perspective on the issues they discuss. And don’t forget to explore other articles in the Power Your Future series to read great stories from other women.
Thanks for reading,
Yahoo! For Good Team

It’s incredibly sexist how you imply women are the only ones who have to make these choices and work-life balances. I read the story about Gina Drosos and I would like to know where the father of the kids was and why couldn’t he coach the game?
Many NGO’s are working to help the women, in making career. As providing them good opportunities, and work from home like self employment programs. You must also refer them.
Great initiative. Hope it inspires many.
I am happy that women are empowered and free now, however I often feel that media is probably overdoing a little too much in exalting women while degrading or ignoring men and good men merits, there is a lot of single fathers too you know?
If you may review my qualities and think of a course that I maybe good at, it will be really helpful and life changing for me
My weaknesses:
)
1. Deep analysis. I might be able to handle less dense analysis if there is such thing.
2. My interest fluctuates most of the time. what I like today I might no longer like after some time.
3. I am a medium paced learner most of the time. But the moment I learn, I can become a respectable pro.
4. I do not know where I am excellent at. I can do lots of things but not excellently. I can do a basic dance, designing, etc. Everything average or a little above average. But after a tweaking, I can be all set and fine :>
My strength:
1. Creativity (not to the maximum level like those of painters and artists)
2. Socializing
3. Intensive reviewing. I’m sort of diligent, you know.
4. Written and orla communication
5. Researching
6. Coordinating with people
7. Dressing up
My interests:
(specific)
1. Psychology
