Women should not quit their jobs due to marriage, according to Ohemaa Woyeje

She will undoubtedly pick her career over marriage if she ever finds herself torn between marriage and the devil and the deep blue sea.

She maintained that there is a tendency for some women to lose their drive and productivity when they marry and have children. She said it was time for them to go above and beyond that standard.

In an exclusive interview with Graphic Showbiz, the mother of two and current host of Y'adwuma Nie on Angel FM acknowledged the difficulties that come with being a married woman in the workforce, but she still believes that a woman shouldn't give up her hard-earned career after marriage, especially if it's only to appease her spouse.

She felt that marriage was only one part of a woman's life and that advancement in one's profession and personal development shouldn't be impeded by it.

"Women shouldn't view marriage as a barrier to what they may do; with the correct support network, they can thrive even after getting married. Women must overcome the fact that some of them quit their work after getting married and others lose their competitiveness after having children.

"We can't let competing duties restrict our potential. We might accept full responsibility for every element of our lives and simultaneously make use of the appropriate support networks to sustain us.

While juggling a lot of work at once can be challenging, with perseverance and a well-thought-out timetable, you can fulfill your passion and finish all of your assignments," the speaker continued.

Speaking about her low points in the media, Ohemaa Woyeje related a crucial pregnant period when her job description was altered without consulting her, which caused her to become frustrated and eventually quit.

She demonstrated her resolve to strike a balance between her love for her work and her responsibilities as a wife and expectant mother by being unwavering in the face of obstacles. "When I was three months pregnant with my first kid, I experienced my worst problems in the media industry.

My manager modified my job description and made me a fieldworker indefinitely instead of a presenter, which caused me a lot of frustration. She recalled, "I fought the situation, but until my lawyers helped me to resign, I was offered no hearing by all the authorities I officially reported to."
