And Laura Utecht, Director of Communications, is our newest MOA team member and has a two-and-a-half-year-old son.
On the topic of work-life balance the group readily agrees they don’t have the single answer. It is more about giving yourself grace, being kind to yourself and others + trying different approaches until you find the right fit. When asked about Mother’s Day traditions or memories, each of our four panelists share heart-warming and uplifting stories, from homemade gifts to riding the Log Chute in Nickelodeon Universe.
And when asked to give advice to new or potential new moms the responses all revolved around embracing the magic of family and the beauty found in each day.
