« I started my sales career when I was 27 years old, as a single Mom trying to simply provide and keep my head above water. I found that I was able to create my schedule around my children's needs, and successfully built a career through strong business relationships that have developed and grown over the years. In October 2021, right as I was gearing up to assist in taking a third company public, I woke up in a hospital. I was completely unaware that I had already been there for several weeks in ICU, fighting for my life - which led to changing the entire trajectory of my existence. I prevailed through the toughest fight for my recovery, with the help of a few doctors and nurses I now count as family. I decided I was not going to waste any more time on things that ultimately do not matter in the scope of life. I discovered that we all need is each other, on every daily level, in order to truly thrive. This one experience changed how I view the entire world around me. I'm leaving the physical scars on my body to remind me to walk empathetically through life. We have all experienced moments that define, then potentially re-define, who we are capable of becoming. I choose to believe in the greater good of humankind. I strive to learn and grow from other individuals I encounter and their own personal journeys. I humbly join Jobs for Humanity, and I am more than excited to witness the Global Movement of Job Creation. It takes all of us to create Humanity! »

« My mom was 35 years old when she became a single mom of 3 girls. She didn't know how to drive, had been evicted from her home, and was struggling to survive a heartbreak of a broken 13-year marriage. As a school bus monitor, she picked up early morning and late afternoon shifts at work so my sisters and I could "pool" with other bus drivers to get to school. She paid for driving lessons and secured income-based housing until my Junior year of high school. I watched my mom, a stranger to this country, raise 3 college graduates. She made it possible for us to visit Europe, South America, and much of the states. She created her own social network and set her own rules of engagement. I am now a wife, homeschool mom to 4 children, a university student, and owner of 2 businesses. And when people tell me "You are Superwoman" I simply reply, "No, I'm not. But I was raised by her." I challenge myself today to be the very best version of myself because if my mom could start over at 35, there is nothing I cannot achieve at 31. »

« From the perspective of career and solo parenting I wanted to impart what I classify as the cheat codes to feeling fulfilment between career and being a mum.Here are 7 ways I have got to where I am now at a place of contentment for the woman I have become and the version of self that my kids have also attributed to.Here we go: Prioritise what matters first. Early on for me, it was flexibility then role. This still applies today. What is your priority?List the things that matter to you in a role aligned to that. You may need a coach or mentor to help uncover your skills.Say hello to mummy (parent) guilt - we all feel it. Just don't be hard on yourself about it. Acknowledge it and what ever you are doing, be fully present with that. If you are hanging with the kids focus on that. If you are doing a piece of work, then focus on that.Have a support network around you that wants to see you win; get rid of the people that make you feel anything less. Do it now.Be open to learn from your kids. They have enquiring minds that make you see things differently. Learning is not hierarchical.Be open to change, be flexible, things in life never go accordingly. This happens on steroids as a parent. Make a plan that is subject to change and be cool with it.Step into your power. Even if and when those moments arise when you have not slept enough for the myriad of reasons. What ever you choose to do in the moment, for the day, month, year just don't half ass it. »

« I had/have a distant relationship with my father. He is much too busy with his own family, and we've moved on with our lives. »

« I never expected that my daughters and I would be in college at the same time, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. »
