One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

Behind every man is a great woman...

Michelle Obama has impressed me throughout this election, but the Democratic Convention was her shining moment. If her handlers wanted to portray her as an inspirational figure, they succeeded. As I watched her speak, I was moved. She personified everything that most professional women want to be, including me.

She was proud. She had clarity. And, her determination was obvious. Moreover, she was stunning. Her hair was perfect. Her makeup was impeccable. And her dress was regal. As her husband has said, she might be a viable candidate in her own right. However, instead, she has chosen to collaborate with her husband to raise a family and to win the presidency. Watching her made me think about a different type of leadership—one that is graceful, elegant, and incredibly effective.

It is clear that Barack Obama is where he is because Michelle Obama is who she is. Hearing her speech made me proud to be a woman, and proud to be an American.
