Abstract	Neoliberalism and patriarchal norms have shaped the working conditions for student affairs professionals. This case study collected individual and focus group interviews, leveraging the experiences and situated knowledge of working mothers in student affairs to develop organizational guidelines for more equitable and unified work environments. By applying mamapreneurialism as a conceptual framework, this study sought to understand how working mothers in student affairs realize their personal and professional aspirations. Findings showed that student affairs mothers need centralized access to information and experience marginalization and power differences with supervisors compared to faculty. They also face structural inequality in the higher education workplace. Structural barriers, such as inadequate university infrastructure (e.g., lactation rooms and parking), complicated participants' abilities to navigate working conditions. Findings focus on recalibrating institutions to become more inclusive for all. (As Provided).
