Someday. Hey, all. Thanks for listening and coming to the site. I really appreciate it. Some of you have probably been wondering what happened. Well, at first I was just taking a break after doing 50 episodes. Then life happened. I won’t get into it, but good to say that things are slowly normalizing. Once me and the family are all well, I’m hoping to launch season two, speaking with women who run big supportive organizations for women. That’s the plan. Please come back here for updates and thanks again for listening and thanks for sharing the show with those you thought should know!

Showing the true strength of a great parent, she was back to work one month after the incident, and went on to continue her career as one of the most respected teachers in Fall River, Massachusetts. She tells us of her early career, how she was forced to resign at 7 months pregnant, and how she worked her way back in to teaching when her intuition told her she would need to be independent from her then husband in the future.
