Terilee's Story
Like other entrepreneurial moms, two of the top priorities in my life are my family and my business. It is not easy to juggle business and motherhood, and I do not claim to be an expert. I spent many years in the corporate world not realizing that there were other opportunities available to me. When I worked a full-time corporate job, my constant concern was that I was missing everything while my children were in daycare for 11 hours a day. Always trying to overcome this concern, I only worked full-time hours for half of my daughter's 12 years. I was fortunate along the way to find several excellent part-time jobs, and I even job-shared for a year. Yet it still never occurred to me that I could leave the security of a corporate job to have my own business.
Thankfully, the entrepreneurial bug bit me in late 2002. I now have my own business, and I love every minute of it. As one of the Regional Directors of RBN - Los Angeles County (the Relationship Building Network), I am much happier, and I am able to set my schedule around my children's important activities and, on occasion, work with them beside me. To me, there is nothing better than being a Mom Entrepreneur!
