I am so excited to share something new with you today! The company is called Purses + Poetry, founded by Canadian entrepreneur Karen Ward. I first met Karen when she invited me to participate in a great research project about Gen X and Gen Y moms through her company Curiosity Inc. (It was because of this project that […] Read more…
During my latest visit to CHEX Daily, I chatted with hosts Teresa Kaszuba and Mike Judson about getting kids out of holiday mode and back into the school routine! Hope everyone’s transition back to school/work has been a great one! Read more…
I’m excited to share a link to an article that I had a lot of fun writing: a wedding flashback from Ben and Jessica Mulroney for the Spring/Summer 2015 issue of Today’s Bride magazine.
