|Ali Brown #SHINE Debrief From a 2009 Diamond … Part 1
Monday, November 9th, 2009
It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly a year since I sat in Ali Brown’s Online Success Blueprint Workshop and applied for her elite $100,000 diamond mentorship program.
This past weekend at Ali’s SHINE event, I sat on stage as part of Ali’s diamond success panel and couldn’t stop the tears from flowing as I thought about the past year and how happy I was to be sitting there as a symbol of hope for the hundreds of women in the audience.
Only a year ago, I was so confused about my identity. Mommy blogger? Lawyer? TV personality? Author? CEO? Something else entirely that I couldn’t even see yet?

The Meaning of Education?
Tuesday, September 15th, 2009
Back in my law school days, we spent hours upon hours debating who was smart, who wasn’t and what it meant to be smart. I thought the conversation was over when I graduated first in my class. I was smart.
Smart (at least for law school purposes) meant an extraordinary capacity to study non-stop and have an intuitive sense for what the professors looked for in exam answers.
More than ten years have gone by and I find myself being forced to completely re-examine the meaning of “smart” within the context of my own children and I have to tell you, it’s painful.

Me, A Homeschooling Mom?!?

<—————— DO THEY MAKE THESE SHIRTS IN SEXY?
The reality of being a homeschooling mom is becoming more clear and I’m scared to death.
I run a (soon to be!) multi-million dollar business from my home. Can I seriously home school my kids?
Gulp, I think so. Things seem to be moving in that direction and I just keep saying yes.
Today, one of the administrators from the kids’ fancy private school called. This is after getting the call from the teacher a couple weeks ago. The administrator was calling, not as an administrator, but as a friend, which was nice.
