Bummer, I Should Have Listened to My Gut
Sunday, November 8th, 2009I should have taken my own advice and listened to my Gut. I mean, heck I wrote a book on it and know exactly how to do it. This is the second time I didn’t listen to my Gut recently and now have big regret. The last time was during the summer when I opened [...]
Mom Entrepreneur Event
Sunday, November 1st, 2009My business partner, Heather, and I are hosting a mom entrepreneur networking event in San Diego this Wednesday and I am continually heartened by the fact that women are wanting to help their family finances. Not that they aren’t concerned about money but, if they’re home taking care of the kids all day their work [...]
It Gets Better I know, But When?
Tuesday, October 27th, 2009It’s interesting to be a single mom and not feel any different than when I was married, really. No offense to my Ex it’s just that my day-to-day life as a mom is not much different than when I was married. Even now, I have the majority of time with my girl’s and I handle [...]
My Light Bulb
Sunday, October 18th, 2009I figured something out.

First, a bit of history in case you don’t know who I [...]
Moms a Softy, Daughter’s are Smart
Wednesday, October 14th, 2009My girls have been with me for the last several days and I’ve been a helicopter hovering over them because they’ve seemed out of sorts. Cranky, tired, fighting with each other and crying over stupid stuff. I can always tell when my 7- year old needs to go to bed early when she cries, “It’s [...]
One More Thing You Realize as a Mom
Monday, October 5th, 2009I didn’t realize until I became a mom how much it would change my life, how could I? No amount of babysitting can prepare you for the emotional, psychological, (can I add hormonal?) and the obvious, physical changes. And no one tells you, either. It’s like the secret handshake for members of a club you’re [...]
Officially a Single Mom Entrepreneur
Sunday, September 27th, 2009When Bill asked me to contribute to his blog I knew it was going to be a bit uncomfortable. I’m a mom to two daughters; Sterling (9) and Portia (7). Even though I’m often in the media I’m a private person. Virtually none of the women in the MomsTown.com or MaryGoulet.net community know I’m divorced. [...]
