list 3 ways that being a parent has positively influenced your life:

Motherhood humbled me and made me realize I’m not superhuman and trying to be was setting the wrong example for my team; it has made me laser-focused on what the highest priorities are; it’s inspired me to define success on my terms and determine my own value and worth instead of letting someone else do that for me.

Please share any tips or insights you can offer to other working parents.

Talk to other working parents; they’re an amazing source of tips. You are never alone! I’ve learned a ton from the women I’ve interviewed over the least 4+ years at BestfortheMoment.com about leaning into fear and carving your own path.

What’s your latest working parent win and/or other important info you would like to share?

I found a flexible path at just the right time for my family as an entrepreneur and luckily had learned from many other moms and entrepreneurs before me who have approached building a business in a much more manageable, sustainable and fluid way than the typical startup entrepreneur is perceived to do.
