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.

Falling in love is contagious...


Apparently my new lease on life is contagious. A friend recently accepted a date with a guy that wasn't her exact type because she asked herself, "What would Chaton do?" As fate would have it, she went out with him and had a great time.

My recent experiences have taught me that I missed out on a lot of fun because of my self imposed restrictions. These restrictions covered nearly every area of life--I shouldn't go out on week nights, I shouldn't date anyone who hadn't made similar choices, and I should stop exercising once it felt too hard.

I am not committed to doing the opposite of everything I did before. That's as silly as all of those rules. Rather, I am committed to focusing on incorporating more of what I truly enjoy into my life.

I have taken some chances. I have gone out on weeknights. I have dated more authentically. And, I have pushed myself athletically. As a result, I have been having a really good ride...

I invite all of my friends and blog readers to join me. Springtime is a time of new beginnings. Come on, let's fall in love together!
