Cornered Office
with Mir Kamin
So, um, remember how I was taped for The Today Show? The segment aired yesterday.
It was kind of a surreal day.
We'd kind of been making all of these jokes about how you go do a shoot for six hours so that they can make a segment that's...
The 36-Hour Day
with Lylah M. Alphonse
Even if you're completely happy in your current job, it makes sense to keep your resume up to date. You never know when you might stumble upon your dream job -- or, in this economy, have to deal with a nightmarish downsizing. Here are a few...
The Work It, Mom! Blog
with Nataly
Mother's Day is one of those holidays that I never appreciated enough before I became a mom.
In Russia, where I grew up, we didn't have this holiday, and instead celebrated International Women's Day on March 8th -- it was customary to give...
The Working Closet
with Susan Wagner
Remember going back-to-school shopping? So many options! So few things your mom really thought you needed! SO much angst!
Or was that just me?
Shopping for new ventures -- new school year, new job -- can be overwhelming, because how...
Milk and Cookies
with Linda and Kristen
For those of you who like tangible organization tools (as opposed to software), and you're tired of the same old Day Runners, Day-Timers, Franklin Coveys, etc, this post's for you. I've been looking at day planners recently, both because of...
Catch Your Breath
with Karen M & Karen R

Moms On Issues
with Sara and Veronica
This article in the Wall Street Journal my friend Kim sent me caught my eye mainly because of its title, "How Stay-at-Home Moms Are Filling an Executive Niche." Now that my working mom status has changed, I pay close attention to how the media...
Work It, Dad!
with Avi Spivack
I just had an IM "conversation" with a colleague of mine who also has a toddler, trying to juggle it all.
I will paste the full back-and-forth after the click, but the crux of it is how often we - as parents - actually get to take a real...
Ordering Disorder
with Chris Jordan
I love home made soup. The stuff from the can just does not compare. It is so easy to make, just requires a chunk of time that you are home watching the pot boil. If you don't have time immediately following the eating of a roasted chicken...
Who Stole My Stapler?
with KathyHowe
Every woman can justify the over-sized bags she carries with her every day. She needs her credit cards (sales!), she needs her lip gloss, her lipstick and her lip liner. She needs a translucent powder for midday touch-ups, and medical and...
Entrepreneur Mom
with Aliza Sherman
Coming up with a name for your new company can be tough. Do you use your own name such as Aliza Sherman and Associates, adding the "Associates" part even though you are only a company of one just so you sound bigger? Do you come up with a strange...
