Have you ever wondered if changing careers based on the different phases of your life? Or are you currently making sacrifices in your career for your children right now? Maybe you're doing something you're not IN LOVE with because, well, you just have to. Life is hard right now. Being a Mama is hard, but it's even harder if we're not able to talk with other Mamas. That's why I love doing this podcast during this pandemic, because I'm able to connect with other Mamas and talk about how we're all handling work and motherhood in this crazy time.

Honesty runs through her veins and she passes that value onto her two girls, who are teenagers!
