Moms On Issues
with Sara and Veronica
A shocking, to some, study [pdf] came out last month in the Journal of Applied Psychology concluding that men who hold sexist ideals make more money than anyone else. So what does this mean to us working girls and the good guys out there?

Mommy Needs a Business
with Kristen
Oh, let's get political. Why not? Not really. I just want to talk about the bailout and all the conversation it's generating. I will apologize upfront. My husband is a free market economist. We subscribe to The Economist. You can already...
The 36-Hour Day
with Lylah M. Alphonse
I feel like I should make the effort to festoon the house with ghouls and goblins -- or at least pumpkins and bales of hay. Most of the houses in my sleepy little New England town slipped into full fall regalia the instant the leaves started...
The Work It, Mom! Blog
with Nataly
On Friday I was in New York, presenting Work It, Mom! to a panel of investors. (It was so much fun I can't even find the words to describe it. Yes, I am kidding. Having a room full of people question every bit of your business strategy, ideas,...
Full Time, All the Time
with Karen and Robyn
Unless you already know that your boss is predisposed to letting you telecommute, one the best ways to start a dialogue is to submit a well-written proposal. In your proposal, take a business-case approach, looking at things from your boss's...
Single Mom at Work
with Kristin Darguzas
I've been writing about my life on the Internet for about six years now. To the uninitiated, I know, it still seems insane -- why on earth would I want to put it all out there? Why would I want to expose my warts for people to poke at, what...
The Working Closet
with Sarah
First things first, let's all give a hearty congratulations to Metalia, the official Working Closet Accessory Queen. I think she should have a plaque made for her office, yes?
Besides the fact that it was NINETY DEGREES this week, I can't...
Entrepreneur Mom
with Aliza Sherman
Applying for a line of credit, like any financing, can be a stressful waiting game. After a series of rejections from my existing corporate bank and a few more from my potential new bank, I was feeling incredibly discouraged. I knew I had a...
Work It, Dad!
with Avi Spivack
So, you love your hubby but you've never really liked his fashion sense (or as my wife gently asked me yesterday "do you think you actually have taste?") - I sense you may not be alone.
Putting aside the most important election of our collective...
Catch Your Breath
with Karen M & Karen R
Autumn.
This is officially my favorite time of year.*
Yep, when the leaves start falling, it feels like time to strap on the walking shoes. Time for a little crunch action underfoot. Put your kid in the stroller, grab an apple for Mr....
Milk and Cookies
with Linda and Kristen
You guys, how did it get to be October already? How is almost Halloween, for crying out loud?
Well, at least if we have to say goodbye to summer, it's while ushering in such a beautiful time of year. I love fall, and I especially love Halloween....
Ordering Disorder
with Chris Jordan
Edible crafts are the best crafts. At least in my mind they are, because who has room to store project after project!
There is something about baking and cooking that children love. I suspect it has to do with taking ingredients, that seem...
Cornered Office
with Mir Kamin
In light of my last post, I thought it might make sense to talk about a way in which my family has been affected by the changing economy.
And while I'm not going to cheer for the rising costs of groceries, or anything, I definitely do see...
Working (On) Motherhood
with Leah
My mom asked last night if we had signed up for our childbirth classes yet. "We don't need that crap," I said, "and especially not for two hundred dollars." "Two hundred dollars?!" she said. "Why, in my day..." and thus began another walk down...
