You are More than Enough.

Always Remember that you are awesome and you are more than enough.

We’ve been there; juggling responsibilities, chasing deadlines at work, and bedtime stories at home. That's why we created the 2nd Shift Playbook, born from our lived experiences and our desire to empower women like us.

Why We’re Here

We saw a need for a space where women can find real answers and genuine support for managing their second shift—the after-hours grind that comes with balancing career ambitions and personal life. The 2nd Shift Playbook is that space. It's about finding harmony, not just balance, and embracing both your professional and personal life with equal passion.

What’s Inside

  • Real Strategies: Time management hacks and mindfulness practices that fit into your life.

  • Community Support: A network of women who get it—because they’re living it.

  • Empowerment: Tools to help you prioritize, set boundaries, and embrace your journey with confidence.

Join the Movement

It's time to transform your second shift from a challenge into an opportunity. Sign up for the 2nd Shift Playbook today and start building a life that celebrates all aspects of you.

2nd Shift Playbook is a small, Black woman-owned business founded by Drs. Charlene Green and Allison Mathews to create a community of professional women supporting women as they juggle their "2nd shift" of work, home and family responsibilities. The concept of the second shift was originated by sociologist, Arlie Hochschild.
