A Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Control Your Own Destiny




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.

We recently experienced the summer solstice and the official beginning of summer, I am reflecting on how I spent my Spring. And, it was magical! If I had a theme for Spring it was, “Just Say Yes”!  I have to tell you, I am so glad that I did. My Spring was — full of new opportunities, events, and activities that bring me joy. As someone who is going through a contentious divorce, I am grateful to be able to participate in things that inspire me, remind me of who I am and bring me joy. And as a mom, I am so very grateful that I am able to love my children in the midst of the conflict and to give them the gift of great memories. 

This Spring I was reminded that our hardships do not have to define us if we have the courage to combat the negativity with positivity. 

So, here’s to a great summer!
