Authenticity. Parenting as Entrepreneurs

Once I truly embraced that I genuinely wanted to be Mom first and entrepreneur second—once I released all resistance around it—things flowed. I got invited to speak at the “Women in Business with Kids” summit, I finally published one of my children's books, “The Brave Little Puffer Fish: Authenticity for Children”, everything flowed!

Money, well-being and the feminine professional

Here is why a clear pricing strategy matters for service professionals. Product industries have clearer, tangible lines in the sand about cost of production, salaries and overhead. It's why you won't dare go to a grocery and expect to get that head of lettuce if you're a penny short. Knowledge industries, however, are not so clear. Read on to see where well-being and the feminine come in.
