Motherhood Inc: Ask Jessica Simpson

Jessica Simpson is getting paid - Mother Inc.

How would you like to eat all you can, be pregnant, give birth and score 2 big time pay outs?

Sounds yummy, right? Well, for many of us – it isn’t happening but for Jessica Simpson she is breastfeeding all the way to the bank.

Simpson recently scored $750,000 for selling the baby photos exclusively to People magazine and $3 million for signing on as a spokeswoman for Weight Watchers to lose weight.

BNM, motherhood is truly the hottest gig out there if you or a celebrity.

Why are we obsessed with Jessica Simpson and Beyonce who are portraying an unrealistic life of motherhood as it relates to weight loss, career, date night and esteem?

Iyanla, Fix My Life: Call A Thing A Thing

Iyanla, Fix <My Life

Last night, I watched Iyanlas’s Fix My Life on the OWN Network and loved it.

Iyanla has a way to get to the core of the pain while healing you and her at the same time.

Her authenticity to say that I’ve made mistakes and still here is so empowering – especially for moms.

Many times as moms we strive for perfection and never realize that it will always elude us because it doesn’t exist. I’ve learned to express to my children that I’m human and need a moment to react or not.

Iyanla said in the show last night, “Call a thing a thing” and say how you really feel. With that simple statement many of us watching started to heal and that felt good.

I think the network has a hit here for Iyanla and Oprah.

Here is a clip – let me know your thoughts.
