As the founder and President of Working Mother Media I have been involved with the advancement of working moms for 30 years. I am often a keynote speaker on the subject of work-life balance, the advancement of women, barriers facing women of color, and leadership. When asked to appear on major talk shows including The Early Show, The Today Show, Oprah, Good Morning America, PBS's To the Contrary and on hundreds of radio shows or to comment in newspapers nationwide, I love to tell the world how hard working mothers work to keep their families and the businesses they work for moving and growing. I told many of my stories in the award-winning book: This is How We Do It: The Working Mothers' Manifesto.

More than 300 women sang “Happy Birthday” to me in Mandarin this past november when I was in Beijing, China. What a wonderful surprise present! But the song was just the icing on the cake. The bigger gift was the one I asked them to give.

Jolly? Bah humbug! How can I be jolly when I haven't bought the tree yet and I haven't put up a single decoration? I usually have this all done by the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend, but this year I arrived home from Beijing, China on the day before Thanksgiving, an ... Read more...
I met Johnny Sileno earlier this year at his sixth birthday party. It was a big party, and each person who came brought a glorious clutch of helium balloons. at 6:18 p.m.— the time of Johnny’s birth—we let all the balloons float up into the sky, an ... Read more...
