I'm a SAHM to my son, and have another one on the way! Starting in August, I will be volunteering with the Girl Scouts to hone in on my ideal job, to develop my career skills further, and to consequently refine my resume, which has been on the back-burner for a while. Once the new baby is here, I will pursue a paid position with the Girl Scouts working on my career goals. I'm also trying to get started on some freelance writing, on a lark, to keep myself busy (okay, busier!). I am definitely not going to do the SAHM thing for another year. While it was fun, I am just ready for more of an intellectual challenge and to get my career on the road now.

I'm the type of person who always has to be doing something. I left my government sector job three years ago to be self-employed so that I could take control of my own destiny. It's taken three years for me to feel like I really have my legs back underneath me. I have a client who calls me her business therapist. That may be the most accurate way to describe what I do! My job is to help entrepreneurs and small business owners feel more in control of their work.

I've worked at home for over 20 years. I'm currently writing a book about how to find a work-at-home job or start a home-based business. This will be my third book for John Wiley & Sons. I've run three prior businesses. I sold my most recent business, a vintage airplane sightseeing business in 2006. I'm a former barnstormer, former venture capital consultant, former banker, and former pantyhose wearer.

I'm a freelance writer and mom to two kids. At my personal blog, thiswomanswork.com, I write often about open adoption, the freelance life and some about homeschooling.

Mom of seven, boss of none. I love to write, make people laugh and play with the kids! They make me feel young!

I am the only female in my house. (Two boys, one husband, even the cat is a boy -- though he's fixed, so not sure where he falls on the gender continuum). Staff writer for environmental NGO, trying to balance being Mommy and being me.

Italian girl with far Aussie roots, born in Sept. 1980. Since my boyfriend was moved to work in another region I started to work as freelance to manage my time to meet him once a week or every 2 weeks. I'm currently web writer, citizen journalist, blogger, freelance translator and photographer, mystery shopper and scrapbooking consultant on training. I hope to move soon to live again with my bf, to find a part time job, to maintain my freelance jobs and to have a big beautiful family soon.

I am just starting to work from home - doing web design and development.

I am a stay at home mom that is trying to work freelance as a writer to bring in money while not putting my kids in day care because then I would be working for free!

I'm a WAHM, Wife, and Mommy to a very active, but so wonderful, toddler. I work at home full time while moonlighting as a freelance web designer in my spare time.

Mom of two toddlers, running an eBay store and managing a handful of blogs in my spare time. Right, spare time.

I am a freelance writer and married mom of two. I spend my days delicately balanced between trying to simplify and go green, caring for two toddlers and managing a bustling freelance career. On my best day, I feel like I can do it all. On the worst, I just want to throw my latop through the window.

I am a freelance writer and owner of an online business called Livingthedreamnow.com. It's family run and we are always scouting around for unique, boutique type items that you won't find in the large retail stores. We sell the kinds of things that just make life a little nicer.

I am an "older mom"--45 years old and the mother of a 8-month-old! I am trying to find the right balance of being a mommy, an independent person, an artist, a wife who has time for her husband, and a wage-earner too.

I'm mom to a 14 month old daughter. We live in Europe as expat Americans, which can be challenging but fun. I'm a writer and professional blogger. One of the biggest challenges for me as a mother has been overcoming postpartum depression.

Full-time editor; part-time writer; full-time wife, friend, and Mama. No time to keep the house clean. Or sleep.

I am a CADD/CAFM technician (engineering), I'm also a freelance writer and proofreader for technical publications. Proud Mommy, and lucky wife to an expat Brit who makes me laugh constantly.
