Quite often working moms find themselves at the heart of the controversy – what makes them tick, how they operate and how they manage life seems to be a subject of complete and utter fascination.

I also have an incredible support system at home – and if that’s in place, nothing tumbles. I have a family who understands my need to be away at odd hours or travel when needed without much notice. I have been very blessed, I should say. But I honestly think I don’t balance things, it’s the other way around – life balances me!”
