Mastering the art of balancing career, love, kids and living in purpose. I have become pretty good at balancing two spinning plates – my beautiful kids and my career. I hope that this blog will allow me to share bits of wisdom I’ve learned along the way (many of which were learned after dropping a LOT of plates) and will continue to learn while trying to advance my skill in the art of balancing it all by adding graduate school. Please share it with friends and family so they can also join the conversation.
