A Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Use Dresses to Stay Cool and Stylish in Hot Weather

on
Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! 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!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

October Means "Stuff" Gets Real for Working Moms!

on
Enjoying the last days of September


I read something on Instagram that said that September lasted like two days. It totally felt that way. September is a transitionary period. However, October has entirely different expectations. In September you can be all like, "School just started that's why I'm a wreck" and you'll receive forgiveness and understanding. In October, people expect you to have the school thing figured out. 

You see the judgement in their eyes. It says, "You're late again?! Get an m'fing Outlook calendar and get with the program!"

So, for you mamas who have been coasting and basking in the grace of other people's understanding. I am here to tell you that you have reached the maximum allotment of it. Now that October is here, folks are collecting receipts and they will be presented to you if you forget that you were supposed to bring that "special snack" for the classroom.

If you don't want to be judged, take my advice. Get your s--t together in October! :-)
