Molly lives in Los Angeles with her husband and 2 year old son. She is a Television Host , Producer and Author.You may also remember her as the Today Show Bride .
Two years ago Molly’s life changed dramatically. She went from being a single, hard- driving career woman to a married stay-at-home Mom. This radical change in identity changed Molly’s life, and lifestyle. She had to reinvent her longstanding ideas about herself and how she wanted to live. Through this experience Molly realized that who you are is a function of being true to yourself and not leaving yourself behind.
Today’s women are more complex than ever. They want to be it all and do it all, but there is often a price to pay - a feeling as though you are doing many things, but not being fulfilled. So what does it mean to be true to yourself? It starts with knowing what YOU need. And what you need doesn’t have to be what someone else needs. As women, we can fall into a trap of constantly comparing ourselves to others. If they are happy being a stay-at-home-Mom, why can’t I be? How could they go back to work and leave their kids? All day long we are comparing ourselves and judging ourselves.
My mission is to inspire women to live life to their fullest by being true to themselves. To know what’s truly important and to honor that. To realize that you can’t be all things to all people all the time without sacrificing yourself…and that YOU are actually the most important person. Women are often the life source in the family, and if you don’t nurture that source, no one else gets nurtured. So decide what YOU need to be nurtured and don’t sell yourself short.
When I became a wife I learned. I learned that it didn’t come easy for me to call someone my husband. I learned it didn’t come easy to change my name. Marriage is a work in progress for me, and that’s ok. When I became a Mom I learned that I can’t do it alone, 5 days a week, I need a break. I also learned that I need something more than Motherhood to fill my soul. So I pursued my dreams.
I challenge you to re-examine your longstanding ideas about your life and lifestyle and make a change that honors YOU.
Molly is currently featured in a documentary about Motherhood on www.capessa.com and the host of an online news show, New Mom News. She is also the creator, producer and host of Babies Gone Wild. Molly’s greatest passion is sharing her life experience to help and inspire others.
