One Smart Mother loves to be inspired! Thank you to Pink Magazine for being the inspiration for the creation of the MotherBoard. Their latest edition of the Little Pink Book featured vision boards which gave One Smart Mother the idea to create MotherBoards. What better time in our lives than the transition to motherhood to envision a future full of promise? It actually began with Oprah.com’s O Dream Board. One Smart Mother wants to take it to the next level and will work with clients to help build those dreams of a beautiful motherhood, while remaining grounded in true practicality.

Isolation, breastfeeding, financial strain, exhaustion, identity shift…
If we were aware of the trappings of new motherhood, how many of us would make the commitment? Despite our standing in life, some things remain constant for all of us when we decide we want to become mothers. Like a lot of other crucial life decisions, we weight the pros and cons. To some, our emotions outweigh the practicalities of the choice. Others agonize over the more concrete – finances, health risk, etc.
The goal of my work – my passion – is to educate women - to empathize and guide through this most important life transition. If we proactively look at the choices involved in becoming a mother, we are more likely to enter motherhood confidently. With less surprises after the baby arrives, we can more fully enjoy this beautiful time.
