There’s always a silver lining in all the dark clouds we may have experienced. One thing is that the pandemic has also elevated many good things for women in the workplace. There are flexible opportunities available even while being stay-at-home moms. Rosie Zilinskas interviews the founder of Untapped Potential, Candace Freedenberg, about the endless benefits of engineering social change for women. Together, they discuss critical concepts on gender equity, diversity, and work-life balance. This is very beneficial to discover because we should try to bridge those gaps and balance our careers as women. We have the potential to rise and excel as long as we are informed and committed to attaining success. Candace focuses on helping women bring their skills and services back into the market, guiding them to thrive and unleash their creativity.

Candace Freedenberg, Founder of  Untapped Potential

She had an engineering degree and an MBA. She had 15 years in leadership roles at companies like IBM and Kodak, a career she was “passionate” about. But Candace Freedenberg also had a baby who had flown 13 times before age 1, just to keep up with her mom’s commute from Washington, DC to upstate New York where Kodak was based. Amidst corporate changes and with a  third child along the way, she realized, "Logistically I couldn’t do it,” she says.  “My husband said, one of us should opt-out.” And so she did. Fifteen years later she opened up Untapped Potential, Inc. to help women like herself relaunch.  “Corporations, businesses, and the GDP are missing out on capital—in women!” she says. "We curate roles with corporations, startups, non-profits.”  Post Covid19, Freedenberg sees opportunity: “Companies would be smarter to work with skilled, mature, flexible talent which offer a cost advantage and low risk."
