The recent news from Philly anchor Monica Malpass combined with the first birthday of Octomom's babies renewed the debate on how old women should be to have children and how many they should have. Missing from the discussion are resources to help the growing trend of women who are deciding to have and raise children by themselves.
iSingleParent is a new magazine currently available in the Philadelphia area designed for any parent determined to have a happy and fulfilled life as they…

Quick! You have less than two minutes to persuade a decision-maker, a wishy-washy client or a new customer that your idea, service or product deserves action. Can you do it? If you tell a story, stick to core messages and know your rights, you are far more likely to engage and persuade.
Tell a Story: Anyone who has survived a speech 101 class can tell you that stories are a surefire way to start a presentation, but few can tell you why.…

For winter boots abound! All styles and especially colors! Have you seen the new Fryes in jellybean hues of pink, orange and purple? Cowboy, biker, slouched, ankle, bootie and over the knee are everywhere. Change your boot to match your mood!
Also try the new matte nail colors, really awesome and chic. Polished purple strapless dresses are on all the stars in the style sections. It's a "Do"! And my favorite look ever is piles of pendants.…

For a long time I forgot what I enjoyed doing for myself. I was busy picking up scattered toys on the floor and playing the Barney song over and over again. Then one day, I realized all three of my kids were on the bus and off to school. I had to ask myself,
Now What? I had forgotten my favorite color (which is red by the way) and also what I enjoyed doing when no one was around to tell me what I liked. It was scary and exciting all at the same…

As a mother, wife, business woman, daughter, sister and friend, I have caused myself to feel stressed and overwhelmed with other people's demands and problems. Today, I realized that is was time to say NO and that saying NO is okay. People that love and respect me would have to accept and understand. As a spiritual person, I truly believe God allows circumstances in our lives to force us to realize that is time to SLOW down. Today was my true…

I had a dream trip to Costa Rica two years ago. It was our first trip really alone since our honeymoon 15 years ago! We were on top of a mountain with our charming guide overlooking the ocean! I asked him what was his dream in life. He said some day he would like to visit the United States. But, he went on to tell us all the obstacles that he would have to overcome. There were more challenges then most of us can imagine and he did not think it would…

Happy New Year to all! I took an extra week to regroup, hoping you don't mind. I figured I'd best practice what I preach, right?
Remember way back early summer when I talked about assigning a weekly to-do task to my calendar each Monday, giving myself seven days to accomplish? Well, look below! The pantry was one of them! While it took me more like seven months instead of seven days, boy, do I feel great! And this is an important lesson to…

If you could have three feelings of what you want the coming year to be about, what would they be? (i.e., energized, freedom, inspired, connected, accomplished, loved, happy, peacefulness, security, etc.) Any feeling at all, that could and would make you feel more confidently moving towards fulfillment and blissfully accomplished next New Year's Eve. Today, I asked a friend that very question. At first she looked puzzled and then with some…

Momma responsibilities and tasks at home can often be done or shared by other members in the family. This…
