A little note from me...
I've always wanted to be a mom. I can remember putting pillows in my shirt as a little girl pretending to be pregnant and taking care of my dolls like they were real, live babies (Baby Alive, anyone?). So at 29, I decided to have one-well two. And by decided, I mean, I gasped in shock as the Type A-planner in me learned that I was having twins. How about that for a life changer?
​
Fast forward past giving birth to preemie babies, more sleep deprived nights than I dare remember, returning to my full time career, moving cross country for a job promotion, and adding another baby to our family, things got a little more complicated. Each change presented its own set of challenges and with each of those triggers, I needed to figure out, again, how I could make it all work. And I did, just like you probably do. Every. Damn. Day.
​
Then something happened.
​
I had a demanding career, a demanding handful of kids, a demanding (well not really, but sometimes) husband, and a demanding me in the background of all that noise pathetically whining, "Hey, what about me?!" I needed more. More time. More support. More simplicity (yes, an oxymoron I know). And I wasn't in a position to just quit my job and make it happen. Hell, I didn't want to just lose my career-it was part of my ambitious self.
​
So I did something else. I started Mama Work It...a place for all us working moms to get what we need:
​
-
useful advice and strategies to help us manage the multiple empires we're ruling
-
support and accountability to achieve BIG dreams we thought needed to stay on the backburner now that we'd entered motherhood
-
the right community of like-minded mamas kicking ass daily in this thing we call life right now
​
We're in it together, mama. So let's look good, feel good and do good every day. Now go on, mama. Work it.
