Expertise

My expertise is in helping moms, in particular rediscover their dreams and goals in the midst of being a mom, wife etc, and helping people identify their passions and dreams, and create an action plan to achieve them.

Experience in the area

Aside from having created my own life plan that encompasses my roles as wife and mother and includes the creation of my own work situation (from home) and provides for personal pursuits (writing), I have a background in counseling and have worked since 1998 helping people find balance in their lives.

Publications

My writings have appeared all over the internet on various websites and ezines.

Education/Credentials

BA in Psychology and MSW.

What do you like about this subject?

I think its important for moms not only to have things in their lives that inspire and interest them, I also think its important for their children to see moms have a life of their own so their daughters don't grow up sacrificing themselves and their sons don't grow up expecting their wives to sacrifice themselves.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I'm always looking for great ideas on how to keep all the plates spinning while still having fun.

Hi Jackie, You've had a lot happen to you so you have a right to feel down, dejected and hopeless. Except those feelings are not helping you. Instead you're going to gather yourself up by the bootstraps
