CEO Mom

By Carol Evans

Twitter: @CarolEvansWM

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.

Join me in this amazing conversation. By the way, I would not be a working mom without my two great kids - all grown up - Julia Rose and Robert Scott; and my husband Bob Coulombe is by my side every step of this journey. Let me know what you are thinking!

It is bright and sunny and so cold! I am happy that I'm wearing Robert's long underwear that he wears skiing! I got to my seat a little late because someone fell off the train platform on the red line so the shut it down. I walked to a different line and felt like I was in a huge parade. But I made it to my seat in the orange section. Wow! It's so exciting. Millions of people are here. The spirit is high as they announce the stars of the show as they come to the stage. I have to warm up my fingers and then I'll write more!
