A visit to the 9/11 Memorial

Filed Under: Motivated Moms Tagged With: family, travel, working mom 12 Comments

Last weekend on my visit to New York City I made a pilgrimage to the 9/11 Memorial.

There are game changing life moments. At the time the moment is happening we aren’t aware of how this might be redirecting our route. A game changer comes in many forms from a jolt, a wake up, a tragedy, an opportunity, a volley, a punch, a pass but if we can’t seize the game changing moment, we miss the chance…

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
