One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Never Doubt Your Worth

Filming video at Sarah Heinz House “Don’t let someone else’s opinion define your worth.” – Jordan Michaels Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full-time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. Recently, I was reminded that humility and confidence can occupy the same space. Indeed, they have to if you want to achieve success.

Live, love, and write...


Tonight I came home from work and did something that I rarely do. I donned my jeans refreshed my makeup and went out for an adult evening.

I treated myself to a lecture. Elizabeth Gilbert, the talented author of Eat, Pray, and Love was speaking. That book was about her transformation after a divorce. She read from an upcoming book about her views on marriage. I enjoyed the event. Her writing style and her subject matter resonates with me. However, more than anything, her personal story speaks to me.

She took a journey of self-discovery and wrote a memoir that captivated women all over the world. I desperately want to write a book. I have a story within me that have yet to be told, several stories in fact.

I would write a novel but my own life fascinates me to the point of distraction.

I have loved. I have lost. I have learned the lessons. I have had the courage to take chances. And I have allowed fear to paralyze me. I realize that I have been feeling, praying, and loving my way to my best life. Someday, I will arrive.

At the end of the day, I hope that I retain a fundamental connection with my soul and that others will be inspired by my story. Stay tuned. This blog will chronicle the journey until the book comes out!
