I am 47 years old. I feel it’s important that we start there because it is, in many ways, the perfect age. Scratch that. Not in many ways. It IS the perfect age. At least it is for me. I’m getting ready to enter a new chapter. Already I can hear the orchestra warming up …
(dedicated to all the women I know who are here. This is JUST for you.) Dear Friend Who Just Went Back To Work, You know who you are. Your kiddos are getting older and you’ve just started back to work! I’m so proud of you. This is a big time for all of you …

Remember the video we all watched when we were in the 7th or 8th grade? You know, the one about Our Changing Bodies?
