Welcome to Navigating in Heels
I am excited to welcome and assemble a community of global women geared towards uplifting, engaging and being a valued resource for one another as we strive to lead our lives and that of our families with confidence and grace.
Navigating in Heels is a dream I birthed several years ago. As a mother, a wife, sister, professional and friend, I’ve experienced many of the challenges many of our readers experienced and it was through a community of women that supported and loved me in elevating through it all.
So you might be asking “Why Now”? Seriously, I ask myself this question all the time. In addition to my responsibilities as a mother, wife and professional and PhD student…there really isn’t much time left to do anything else. However, this vision of a community of women is in my heart and I simply can’t let this go. Besides, I am often asked for tips on how to manage it all by women of all ages and backgrounds. Navigating in Heels is a forum for us to share our best practices, knowledge and experiences.
Speaking with women around the world I find we have 5 simple truths! At any given point in time we are managing 5 critical areas in life…our Faith, our Family, our Finances, our Friendship, our Fitness and last but not least our love of Food. If we are truthful with ourselves, at any given time, we may have 1 or 2 and sometimes 3 of these areas in the positive and the others are dragging behind us. Collectively, women have enough information and experiences shared through our collective stories to share. Lets start sharing.
Thank you for joining our online community and I hope to hear from you soon.
