SuperMoms Roundtable


Can I Have It ALL?

This is the perennial question of many working moms. The struggle between maintaining a great family life, raising successful children, sustaining a career, maintaining an active community life all while taking good care of ourselves physically, emotionally and spiritually. Live one day in our shoes and you know this juggling act is NO easy feat. BALANCE IS THE KEY TO LIFE! Admittedly, achieving it has been my prayer for years!

See below for an excerpt from website. A link to details follows:

The stress of motherhood is more than even some of the most prepared, organized moms can handle but add a 50-hour work week, not to mention being present in your other important roles as wife, daughter, sister, best friend, and showing up for yourself becomes a distant concept. It is easy to get out of touch with our feelings, our bodies, our perception of ourselves and miss even obvious signs that our hearts may be at risk.
Go Red For Women® encourages women to share with others to inspire conversation, compassion and a greater understanding of the important journey to heart health. At the SuperMoms Roundtable, hosted by Traci E. Alexander, we will do just that and get to the heart of the matter for working mothers.

This powerful event presents a panel of supermoms—from different backgrounds and stages of life, engaged in a candid discussion about life’s issues. You will have the chance to share stories of struggle, success and support and learn from one another and our featured expert, founder and CEO of Balancing Life’s Issues, mother of three and stepmom to two, Wendy Kaufman .
