Secrets of a Mom and Entreprenuer

I started my business eight years ago and my family three years ago. I have to admit that this has been the hardest challenge of my life. I had no idea that running a business would require so much intense focus. Nor,  did I ever imagine that a child would demand so much sacrifice.  

I went from having a carefree life as a single woman living in one of the most electric cities on earth, to a married mom whose social calendar consists of family outings, client appointments and birthday parties. At one time in my life, I knew all of the hottest clubs and bars, traveled to fun and exciting places with friends, came home after kissing morning light. Now... I can barely stay up past 10pm. 

Set aside from the partying side of life. I remember being able to put in a full 15-hours of productive work. Now, I have to set aside time for family and not just work. I created this blog to share for my own benefit and others what life is truly like when your priorities are no longer the center of your conversation. 

Life and Career is a very delicate balance.
