I can’t tell you how many times we have been asked the question, ” How do you make time for intimacy between having six children, home and career?”
Over the years our strategy has been ever changing, however, with a vasectomized hubby and our infant on solid foods, romance is definitely in the air. Continue reading

The interesting thing about being a mother is that so much attention is given to women. Men have a harder time expressing themselves and/or finding an outlet to release their frustration. You might say this is common knowledge, but my husband after listening to me gripe and moan asked “Do you hear my concerns? Do you understand my frustrations?” I think he was tired of seeing me cry like a little girl. However, to be fair to him he was having his own meltdown.

I think how often as a PR/Branding and Mommy Expert I use the world branding when coaching a mom/client.
Too many times to count.
What I’ve come to realize is that individuals are more concerned with “getting paid” “making it big” and simultaneously compromising self just to get ahead and score a minute of fame instead of being strategic and enjoying the fruits of their labor for an extended duration. Continue reading

Chances are 2013 came in and you were busy taking care of others.

When the unthinkable and unimaginable happens all you can do is pray, pray and pray.
My heart and deepest love goes out to the families in Connecticut this morning because I know that at any given moment that incident could have occurred in my world. The world we live in is sad, crazy, lonely and depressed. I pray this morning for the cycle to stop. Let’s take a breath to inhale hope and hug our babies/families because sadly nothing is ever promised.
Details on the tragedy is posted here. #Love, #Hope and #Prayers.
Lynnette Khalfani Cox, The Money Coach and contributor to The Brand New Mommy has an interesting post on child support.
What to do if you need child support?
If you have recently ended a marriage or a relationship and had children at some point during the relationship, you may be eligible to receive child support from the other parent.
Child support laws exists to ensure that the child or children are appropriately cared for once the parents’ relationship has terminated. Continue reading here at Ask The Money Coach.

At The Brand New Mommy, it’s all about creating dynamic, motivating, and empowering relationships; relevant discussions and celebrating REAL people making moves. With that said, allow me to introduce our new weekly feature – The Brand New Mommy Power Mom Profile.
Many people think this blog is about being a brand new mommy and giving physical birth – it’s not!
TBNM is about POSSIBILITIES for moms seeking reinvention, renewal and redefining their personal brand post childbirth AND that could be launching a new business or product.
I empower all ‘brand’ new moms to reach for the galaxy and support all that is renewal at TBNM.

Thank you so much for responding on Twitter and Facebook on how you plan to take back or jumpstart your ‘brand’ once school is in session.
For many it was as simple as watching a movie alone and eating a cinnabon (without having to share), scheduling a much needed spa day, getting back to a workout regimen with Zumba and Yoga, and (some) BNMs going back to school to compete in this crazy economy.
I spoke with a BNM Vikki, a soon-to-be empty-nester thinking about her reinvention. As I have stated, being a brand new mommy is more than giving birth and having a newborn. 
As moms we spend every day, all year, taking care of others and often times forgetting about our personal brand/self. Continue reading
I recently read Heidi Klum’s blog on the Huffington Post candidly sharing how she cares for her bi-racial babies hair.
Let me just say … I respect her game for celebrating her our hair and understanding that Black hair is beautiful, however, requires tons of tender love.
Black hair is tre’ special and MUST have the following:
1) Love
2) Celebration
3) Time (it takes us a little longer to get the right style)
4) Exceptional hair products (for some reason our hair requires a new gel, conditioner, detangler, and shampoo every three months to maintain our coif)
5) Mo’ Love
In the blog from The HuffPo, ‘Caring for my Kids’ Hair,’ Klum says … Having four children, with one having straight hair and three curly, it’s a bit of a new world for me. Growing up with straight hair myself, which was all I really knew how to work with. It was pretty straightforward: wash, air dry, done.
Henry, Johan and Lou — my three youngest — have super beautiful locks. Their hair definitely requires a different kind of care than my daughter Leni’s hair. I’ve learned to never brush their curly hair when it’s dry because then it’ll frizz. I use lots of conditioner and detangler, and only go to hairdressers who really KNOW how to cut and style curly hair. Continue reading article on Huffington Post.
