Book Description

"In the shadow of the night, as I rocked back & forth with my new baby, I felt like I had been reborn...My career seemed miles away. I wasn't sure how my tidy professional life would fit into my new walk with motherhood... Thus began my journey to redefine myself. I was a mother. I was a spouse. I was a career person... How would these all mesh together?" BRIEFCASE TO DIAPER BAG is an autobiographical/inspirational story of how this working mom comes to the decision to stay at home to raise her three young children. But after five months at home, she realizes that there are major voids in her life since leaving her career behind. She explores each void in a humorous style & using stories & anecdotes from her life at home, describes how she learns to get her self-esteem from who she is, not what she does; how she finds challenges both outside the home &, more importantly, at home with her kids; how she builds a new social network in her community; & how she rebuilds equilibrium in her marriage.
