It's a fascinating thing watching your kids have kids, as we chat with Carole Parsons Schafer. Lots of mixed feelings, with the stress of watching them suffer through the hard times we remember so well, and also the joy of being "Gramma!!"

When Carole asked me whether I felt alone as the mom of a special needs child, the conversation took an unexpected turn into the discussion of balancing my child's needs with my own, and the challenges involved in not only balancing work and home, but in being a successful entrepreneur. Kindred spirits who are multipassionate and entrepreneurs at heart, we bonded over the challenges and joys of loving ideas and confusing people who like to keep things simple.
