One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

Following Instagram posts can make you feel like other moms are either made of money or have sugar daddies funding their lifestyles. I can assure you. I have neither. There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be. It's not because I lied about having a sugar daddy or have a trust fund.  It is because I am frugal. Indeed, being conscious of expenditures is integrated into my lifestyle.  I know that it is gauche to discuss money and yet, I feel compelled to share some thoughts.

Attend "The Mom Con" on Thursday, May 23rd


I mostly write about issues that are relevant to working moms. However, the truth is, all mothers face unique challenges whether they work in the home or out.  Our predecessors had more clearly defined roles. Today we are expected to raise perfect children, keep a perfect house, make gourmet meals and look like a supermodel! 
 

Plan to attend The Mom Con

Every mother know that motherhood can be all consuming.  It can be overwhelming to accomplish all of your own goals and trying to satisfy other people's expectations can be even tougher.
 
That's why moms need help.
 
Some very smart women created "The Mom Con", a conference series designed to inspire and empower moms to pursue their passions while raising their kids. I am one of the speakers for the Pittsburgh conference and I am thrilled! Nothing makes me happier than helping moms create a life that works for them.

Plan to attend. You’ll get fresh ideas, an opportunity to connect with other local moms, and a day away from the juggling act.  Instead you can focus on you and gain tips  to transform you into the best resources you can be for your family – and yourself.

Register for the conference through this link: http://themomcon.com/ (Save $10 if you register before April 30th!)
