One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

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. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Diane Mizota and Chaton Turner chat at the BlogHer'12 Conference (#BlogHer)

I finally figured out how to get the interview I made with Diane Mizota, VP of Pop Culture at "Pop Chips" at the BlogHer'12 conference off of my iPad and onto YouTube . I am rather embarassed that it took me a month to figure out how to do it, I decided to do what I planned and post it.
Have patience with me. I did the interview in a restaurant at the New York Hilton so there's a lot of background noise.  For my next interview I'll be more sensitive to that. Still, even with the background noise I think that it's a good interview.

Diane is a delight.  I really hope to collaborate with her in the future. (Diane, can you hear me?!) I met her through Rachel Blaufeld from "Backngroovemom" who has is a major "connector" ala Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point. She seems to know everyone and has been kind enough to to introduce me people in her network. Thanks Rachel!
Enjoy the video!
