I’d like to introduce you to a friend of mine, a classmate from high school, who I have reconnected with in adulthood. She is a working mom, and author of a book called,  “The Working Mommy’s Manual.” When I first discovered that she wrote a book, I started poking around on her website and reading her blogs about it. She captured my attention immediately. I messaged her about it and she sent me a copy of her book. Now let me share, I am not one to sit down and read a book. Not that I don’t love to read. I used to all the time. But as a working mom myself, I rarely have the pleasure of having quiet time to myself to just sit down with a good book and read. Probably the only time I get to do that is on a plane, or when I go camping for 3 days with my family and there is NOTHING else to do! With that said, I opened her book one night getting into bed, and I couldn’t put it down. Her writing is captivating. She has humor and honesty about all the things that we think about on a daily basis.

Since reading the book, I have recommended it to many clients over the few years. I have shared her website. I read her blog posts and it usually is directly linked to something that I talked about in a session with a client. So I reached out to her and asked if she would mind me a “special guest” on my website. She was delighted!

So I’m proud to introduce to you Nicole Corning, working mother, author and inspiring human being!  I will be sharing her blog posts over time, ones that relate to the clinical work that I do, and that I think my clients could benefit from.

But go out and buy her book. Definitely a keeper for the bedside table!!

About Nicole

My name is Nicole Corning and I am a working mom. I have a nasty habit of working a bit too late a bit too often. I’ve also been known to devote entire days to school field trips. I admit it I lead a double life. I can’t choose one or the other. And this blog is my attempt to live as honestly as possible with my choices in hope that my honesty benefits all the working moms out there!
