I started this blog as a creative outlet to express my observations, realities and foibles navigating life as a professional marketer and mother.
Sometimes the going is calm, cool and collected — smooth and polished like a pearl. And sometimes, things are unpredictable and seemingly uncontrollable, hot and smokey like a wildfire.
I hope you enjoy.
