Very Intentional. 

In the bustling city of San Diego, many women find themselves juggling the demands of work, family, and personal responsibilities, often at the expense of their mental health. A recent survey by the San Diego Women's Foundation revealed that a staggering 67% of women reported experiencing high levels of stress due to these pressures. Moreover, the California Women's Well-Being Index highlighted that women in San Diego County face higher burnout rates than the state average, with 55% frequently feeling overwhelmed.

These statistics paint a vivid picture of the mental health challenges women endure, which are compounded by systemic obstacles in their professional lives. Despite having similar qualifications and performance levels as their male counterparts, women are 30% less likely to be promoted to managerial positions, according to the San Diego Workforce Partnership. Additionally, a report by San Diego State University's Center for Women’s Studies reveals that 40% of women encounter gender-based obstacles in their career advancement. These professional hurdles not only hinder women's growth but also contribute to their pervasive stress and burnout.
