Connect What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is being loved by my kids through the highs and lows of motherhood. Despite all the parenting books and stories from other moms, every mother’s journey looks different. There are days where I feel I absolutely rock at being a mom and other times when I feel like I’m in over my head. Through it all though my babies love me genuinely and authentically with no judgements. As mom’s it’s us who don’t always give ourselves grace during this journey not the kids.

What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?

February 27, 2024, my son’s first bday, a day I’ll never forget for many reasons. One, I already stated. Two, I planned a family photo shoot in Hawaii. Three it was the first family photo as a single mom. That day I wanted to cancel for so many reasons the kids were in an uproar, nothing seemed to be going right, I was late, all bad but once we got there..magic! Moms have those day where we just want to throw in the towel and say “forget it” but this day I was determined to give a little more.

What would you do with $20,000?

As a single mom with two kids, $20,000 would be life-changing for us. I would love to put the money toward my business Luxury Nurse Concierge which I have the pleasure of running with my mom who has been the biggest inspiration in my life. I am proud of the woman and mother I am today because she gave me a solid foundation. $20,000 would definitely help to fund not just my dream but a legacy started by two moms. Thank you for your consideration.
