My Comments About Jane Doe, Cornell, and the Thin Line Between "Fine" and Forever Changed

Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! In my world, 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!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

on


Today, I ran the Race for the Cure. It is impossible to ignore the significance of the race. This race was moving for the same reasons that it has been in the past. It is such a good cause—40,000 people uniting to eradicate breast cancer.

I think this the fourth time that I have run the race in Pittsburgh. However, this race was different for several reasons. First, I am in awful shape. As I ran the hills and meandered through the course, I was painfully aware that I have not been working out. Second, and more importantly, I wasn’t able to share Mother’s Day with my own mother.

Fortunately, I am blessed that my mother is still living. And, every other time that I have run that race, I have done it with her. It had become a tradition. However, since she has moved, we were unable to run the race together. In addition, an upcoming event made it impractical for me, or my brother and sister, to go to DC to see her. Next weekend, we will all make it up to her.

Next weekend the entire family will be convening in Atlanta to celebrate my brother and sister’s graduation from college and business school respectively. We’ll also be celebrating my mother.  When my mother sees her children get those degrees, it will be the happiest of all days.
