You Know That Working Mom Blog Thing

I haven’t talked about it much over here lately, but I’m still writing weekly over at Liberating Working Moms.

So many great things have been happening on that side of the interwebs I wanted to share!

We’re up to 7 regular writers for the site now! I love the different mix of women we have. 3 from the Western side of North America, 4 from the Eastern side. 2 Canadians even! We all have different types of jobs too…2 of us in marketing, though not the same kind, 2 of us teachers, 1 office manager, 1 web developer and 1 attorney. A couple of us are boy moms, the rest of us are girl moms. Two of us have buns in the oven. It’s so great to see women from different walks of life coming together to share their experiences as working moms.

Some of our posts have been recognized and featured on the career page AND home page of the BlogHer Network! If you aren’t familiar with the BlogHer network it’s ok, but trust me when I say this is a BIG deal! And? Two of them were mine! One where I talked about leaving stress at the door and the other where I gave some tips for traveling for work while pregnant.

We recently started up an online shop where you can buy goodies for your favorite working mom! {I love the “Supermom at Work” one and the “I make Humans & Deadlines” one…just sayin’} I got to flex my mad design skillz on these and help Tracy, our founder & editor with the designs. It was a lot of fun and all the proceeds that are earned from these sales are being put toward sending our associate editor, Brandee, to BlogHer2012 National Blogging Conference where she can network and learn more about growing the blog on LWM’s behalf. If you ask me, these would make wonderful Mother’s Day gifts.

Today, I’m posting my “Working With Style”. It’s a feature we do every Saturday. We rotate between the 7 of us and today it’s my turn! I really stepped out of my comfort zone on this one…Go see!

And if you feel so inclined, you can like us on facebook to get links to our latest posts. Or maybe you’re not a working mom and you know someone who is, pass it on!

Ok…phew! I know that’s a ton of information but I’m so excited about everything that’s been going on I wanted to update you on this amazing community that has become such a big part of my life! {And I swear I’m done with the over usage of exclamation points now!…ok now.}

    I really admire your courage in sharing this post, you know what in the place where I use to live almost all mom don't work and stays at home, only our husband keeps on working. I think that I am ready to change it , I will show them that even mom can still work at office or online.

    I really like your blog and I think it's great how mothers can find a whole network of friends and advisers in these kinds of blogs. Another working mom blog I enjoy is Young Urban Mothers. They have great stories and advice, as well as ideas to do with kids and recipes. Pretty much everything a young mother could use, urban or not. You should take a look.
