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.

A Peek Into the Life of a Blogger Mom: Preparing for My First Blogging Conference (BlogHer12)

Since I enjoy blogging I decided to attend a blogging conference this year. There were so many to choose from. Ultimately I chose the one that I thought would give me the biggest bang for my buck and would be the least disruptive for my family.

Based on that criteria, thanks to my new girl Rachel Blaufeld of http://backngroovemom.com/, I settled on BlogHer12. It had a great agenda. There were workshops about how to market my blog, I prove its look and become a video blogger. Those are all things that I am I interested in. Also, I was able to travel the conference on a direct flight. I vowed not to spend more than one night away from the toddler till she's two and I am keeping that promise. She may not know the difference, but it's important to me.

I was so focused on the conference--what to wear, how to style my hair, who to meet--that I  forgot that even I prepare well, I can't control everything.  However, I was reminded and my family's life was disrupted.

I'm writing this on a plane, which is landing. So, I'm going to have to pause. For now, let's just say that I really appreciated the free drink they gave me on the plane...
