A Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Use Dresses to Stay Cool and Stylish in Hot Weather

Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! My days often start with laundry, early-morning emails, and making my kids a hot breakfast. They often end with late-night homework checks, making Instagram reels, and appearing on Celebrity Court of Public Opinion. Somewhere in between, I’m navigating boardrooms, working towards deadlines, and immersed in the good, bad, and ugly chaos of motherhood and household management. As a working mom of three and a professional carving out space in corporate environments, I share my journey of balancing leadership with loving my family, and I sprinkle it with self-care tips. Here, you’ll find honest reflections, hard-earned lessons, and practical strategies for creating an authentic life that you enjoy. If you’re trying to do it all without losing yourself in the process, you have found your sister in the struggle!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

Leap into Action!

Everyone keeps saying that 2012 will be their year. Perhaps the Mayans have us all worked up? Perhaps these 60 degree days in the middle of winter in Pittsburgh no less has us thinking about global warming? Or, perhaps it is the cosmic storm that the meteorologists recently discovered? I have no idea what the reason is. What I do know is that the people in my life are doing more, talking less and eschewing procrastination. My sister even gave up wasting time for Lent. She is that committed to her self improvement project and her goals. I am not immune. I have hired an intern to help me with some personal projects. And she is great. So, I'm caught up in the frenzy and committed to taking some of my projects to the next level this year. Now is the time! Carpe diem and all that jazz! After all, this is a Leap Year. So we have 24 extra hours to accomplish our goals.

Happy Leap Day!
