what is a Modern Mom?

A Modern Mom knows that there is no such thing as being a perfect mom, friend, or wife. She is the best friend you wish you had all these years. She is inspirational, intuitive, powerful, and resourceful. She is organized, responsible, and motivates you to be the best you can be. She is loving, nurturing, open and honest. She will help you deal with your husband, kids, mother, job, relationship and home. She gets personal. She knows how to work a breast pump yet can make a mean martini as she hosts amazing dinner parties on Friday night. She'll tease you when you need to lighten up and cut you or others a break when you need it. She is your best friend.

the Modern Mom philosophy

• Balance

  Balance is about finding equilibrium, it is about making the right decisions and choices for yourself and your family. It involves not losing sight of the woman behind the scenes and never losing touch with the woman inside. Balance is the way you maneuver through the many important roles you play in the lives of your children, friends, family, and significant others.

• Relevance

  Relevance is about the embracing the spirit of today. It is about fashion, exercise, food trends,technology, parenting philosophies, and everything else that touches your world. Most of all, it is about being aware. It is about keeping an open mind and learning from the advice and experience of friends, mentors, and experts. It is about taking what you know and sharing it with the world.

• Consciousness

  Consciousness is about being acutely in touch with your feelings, your body, and your brood. It is being attuned to your surroundings and the world around you. It is about knowing the impact of your actions on the beautiful but fragile ecosystem you have created. A conscious woman knows that the only real constant is change, and that change is an opportunity that needs to be seized.
